So, I realize yesterday was the big day for "I'm thankful..." blog posts, but me? I'm thankful for the day AFTER Thanksgiving. I'm thankful it's over, I'm thankful that we managed to pull through the day with no family arguments - always a plus for a family gathering in our world, I'm thankful that I didn't burn the turkey, or for the first year ever, boil over the gravy. I'm thankful that Sweetness didn't bite anyone who came over and that nobody choked. It was a good day.
But most of all, I'm thankful for this blurry, poorly lit photo... which shows a celebration of family
and this one too... which shows not only my beautiful daughter just tolerating the family, but dad with his famous "look at my daughter, isn't she something?" expression on his face (and really, I know that's what he's thinking because when one sees that look, trust me, he suddenly speaks those exact words - and sometimes, it's quite embarrassing).
and then there's this bad photo for which to be thankful...which shows a perfectly made in 24 hours meal if I do say so myself... AND the pride that my aunt has for her family
But I'm also thankful for these two photos that show that while life may often be a blur, and sometimes poorly lit... it's always worth remembering
Happy Black Friday y'all :)
