Thanks a lot-really
This Thanksgiving was going to be special. We were invited to share the day with the family of my son's fiance. After all, come August we would be a family and it was time for us to come together, toast the engagement of our kids, celebrate our blessings.
OK, I was a little nervous about it. I wanted them to like us. I wanted to like them. I love their daughter and I am over the moon that she and Billy are getting married.
So, off we went to Rochester, my brother driving us in his behemoth SUV, the GPS lady chirping instructions. We came bearing pies and ratatouille and wine.
What was it like? Well, it was everybody's dog waiting for something to drop
It was tons of food from everyone's kitchen
It was chilling after dinner with football and new toys
It was desert and coffee
It was the joy of watching the love between the children we shared
There was laughter and teasing and conversation.
It was family.
