I had such a wonderful day today. This is our first Thanksgiving in our first house, which is cool enough. But today we had a crowd of 16 family members in our midst. It was crowded and noisy and chaotic, and now that everyone is gone, I feel a little glow. Although we all live within a few hours of each other, we only manage to get together a couple of times a year. I realized today how special it is that we’re all together. How it’s a rare thing that adds up to a treasure trove of memories. And I love spending time with a part of my family that was largely out of my life for 15 years. It’s like meeting a whole new group of people again, and it pleases me beyond words. It meant so much to me today to share my new home with my family. It has been a wonderful day.
