Today is Thanksgiving, but it is also a more special day. Today is my youngest son Stephen's birthday! Below is a picture of Stephen and his family!
And a picture of him and his three sons!
And the picture below is of Stephen in his classroom where he teaches with his 50's look - with the curl in his hair and his letter jacket from high school! The students always have him doing something silly - and they love him!He is a wonderful, funny guy! He is tall with long arms and gives the best hugs. It's like his arms just wrap you up! He is so many things, and I could tell you all of them, but after all he is my son so I am a bit biased :-) He has grown into such a wonderful man, and a wonderful father to his three sons. They are so blessed to have him as their dad. I am proud of you son, and love you very much! Happy birthday and so many more.
This morning I felt so lonely, I didn't think I could get thru this day! My children and grandchildren were not with me, but we were going to my dear, dear friends and so put a smile on and away we went!Well, it was a WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL day! We decided that just because it was the four of us that we would not just have a couple of things. So we had a big turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, Marilyn's pink stuff, cranberry salad, a wonderful fruit mixture inside a small pumpkin, veggies and dip, wine, coffee, pumpkin pie and cherry pie and rolls! Ok what did I miss? We laughed and shared and laughed some more. We played a card game called "Golf" and laughed some more.Now we have been friends with Marilyn and Howard for 30+ years. We exchange birthday gifts and Christmas gifts. Well this year we kinda got behind in the birthdays, but decided we would do them today. I opened mine before Marilyn. I read the card (had to control my face) - I opened the gift (had to control my face). I'm thinking Marilyn probably thinks I don't like it. Then Marilyn opened her gift. She opened the card and burst out laughing so hard, she almost fell off the couch ---- she then opened her gift and the laughter continued until tears flowed! You guessed it, we got each other the SAME card and the SAME gift!!!!! PRICELESS!!!!!I hope you all had as wonderful and relaxing Thanksgiving as I did. God bless you all. I am so very thankful for so many things this evening, but the blessings of friendship is truly a blessing.
