Thanksgiving

I made it through today, Thanksgiving. I cried yesterday. I knew there would be no opportunity for me today. Eric and I hosted. It was weird to await my parents' arrival, knowing my grandmother would not be walking up my walk. My mom was sad and my aunt was sadder, and I tried my best to keep everyone level headed. Adam thought great-grandma was coming too and this upset my mom. He doesn't always understand, he is 4. But he and his sister brought more joy to the day than I could have imagined. And that is what I am most thankful for.
