happy thanksgiving

this morning i am making broccoli casserole (ya-um!) and a quinn safe cherry pie. 2 doors down the sweetest, funnest, coolest neighbors are frying turkeys for the neighborhood and their friends....all day. seriously. they have been doing this for years and since we are now part of the 'hood, they have kindly offered to fry for us too. and quinn loves the girls! they are (i think 9 & 10) but they love playing with him and are really good with him. after quinns nap we will head to my aunts and have dinner with the family.

i am thankful for:
my son, husband, family, friends, home, health, doggies, being a SAHM, being able to create art, each day, my friends babies, all that my DH does for q and i.

i hope you have a good, safe and happy one.

my sweet son.
how i love to watch you play. you are uninhibited and free, not a care in the world. but you play with concentration and seriousness as though nothing matters more in this moment than the joy you are finding. and that is how it should be. i hope as you grow you can keep being serious about playing. just a few days after your thrid birthday, we brought out the sprinkler toys to test out the grass in our new backyard. i am positive that you enjoyed yourself, and continue too. june 2007
