Tomorrow

Tomorrow is the Thanksgiving. I know this is a hard time for many. My heart reaches out to you and I hope the day will bring peace and new memories. I hate to admit it but I a little afraid myself. Who am I kidding. I'm terrified! I'm going to see my sister in law if she is feeling better tomorrow and eating out. This is a very different Thanksgiving for me. I can not believe Chris' won't be hopping around saying. "Where's the food Little Mama?"  We won't be watching our DVD's together or going to look at the Christmas lights. Alice is hundreds of miles away and we always had memories of putting up the Christmas tree together. Her favorite part of the dinner was the turkey leg, dinner rolls,  eggnog, and of course pumpkin  pie! I hope she gets to enjoy these in PA. I know we will spend time on the phone and make new memories. I know she is very anxious about the number of people coming to their house.Our Thanksgivings where just the three of us after my divorce, but they were always great times together. I'll really, really miss that already.

I know Chris will be missed.But he is with you.Everyday,as you think of him.For one is there as long as those who love him remembers.

I hope you and Alice can have a great Thanksgiving.Though far apart both of you are trying to make it a happy one.And it's always the love that matters.I know Alice knows you wanted to be with her,and that alone is a happy thought!And worth celebrating Thanksgiving for.
