This was my comment to a post in countess_e 's journal, and I liked it well enough to put it here, too.

Thanksgiving has so many memories for me: family, non-family, dinners with my ex's family, dinners with Wade's family. This year we're cooking a very non-traditional dinner (leg of lamb, etc.) on Thurs., with the very traditional Turkey dinner to follow on Fri. at a friend's house. In one way this is a milestone for me: This is the first year the girls will be "coming home" for Thanksgiving. Oh, they've both been away for a while, but we've gone to either grandparents' houses for the holidays. This year both Thanksgiving and Christmas will be here. Wow, I guess I am a grown up.

Of course you are still "childlike"! That is half the fun, isn't it? I know that I am bringing Valentino (stuffed tiger) in his new Holiday outfit to dinner on Friday!

We should bring Lucretia and Bartholomew, too.

That is what I was hoping for!

The best part is, both of your daughters are really happy that it's at your place this year. YAYAYAYAYAY! HOlIDAY AT MOM'S!!! I don't know about Katy but this means I will be much more relaxed.


And yeah, I'll bring Penn, although he doesn't have any spiffy holiday specific clothes.

That's ok, he's pretty spiffy as he is.
