I always see my glass as 1/2 empty but this Thanksgiving it was definitely, to quote Lynn, it was "Happy Full". Not sure if it was because of the grandbabies, or the fact that we shared cooking responsibilities so no one got overwhelmed or the fact that the whole family, in laws and out laws included, got along exceptionally well, lol.Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13637952428656957505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11335434.post-19564807715289795452011-11-29T21:13:21.768-06:002011-11-29T21:13:21.768-06:00not empty, not even half!not empty, not even half!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04414561988993487725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11335434.post-83647047330531470382011-11-29T19:32:59.152-06:002011-11-29T19:32:59.152-06:00After my Thanksgiving, it will be a while before I...After my Thanksgiving, it will be a while before I feel half empty.

Without my parents and grandparents, it falls to us to keep the family traditions alive and none of those traditions were framed around gift-giving.

But I am sort of not looking forward to Christmas - I wish it could just be about celebrating Christ's birth, the music, lights and festive atmosphere, but I am already getting the "what do you want from Santa?" questions. :) I realize now that I gave a somewhat grumpy sounding reply to an email last night, by saying "I don't want or need anything."
