Hey- tagged you in a post about "Favorite Things". Hope you can participate- great way to promote the things you love. You could even promote Tea Gifts- since your hubby is owner.Home of a Magnoliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13531344285220921997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1792809147897940738.post-19344399991331815972010-11-25T22:47:50.025-05:002010-11-25T22:47:50.025-05:00I didn't have the kids today either.

They are in their beds near me, where they belong. At least I can look forward to next year when they will be with me... and I will truly be thankful for that.Jessica Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12026783815905169830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1792809147897940738.post-55665574947869999102010-11-25T10:21:04.173-05:002010-11-25T10:21:04.173-05:00I see we read some of the same blogs so I popped o...I see we read some of the same blogs so I popped over to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving. In reading this post I can totally understand why you hate this day. Being without loved ones tears your heart a little. You are spunky though and have resolved to appreciate it anyway which is the road to helping rid yourself of hate (which is good for your children too). I had hate for many years, -different situation- and it only hurt me until I could make peace with the reason, forgive and try to see only the good. I still struggle with it but can tell you that it makes life better. <br />Your children are adorable and the pic of your three is so sweet!!!

But, you have a great outlook on the positive side of the situation, in that you do have your boys most of the time and you have a wonderful husband with whom to share this blessed holiday. Enjoy your day, eat lots of turkey and then relax if you can. :)JMWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11850088300591079931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1792809147897940738.post-62086811982155766832010-11-24T09:27:33.176-05:002010-11-24T09:27:33.176-05:00I would hate it too.

You are certainly right about all that though -- it's those little moments that we can take for granted but that are so special and mean a lot to your boys too! I am also a mom of 2 boys about the same ages as your (in looking at your photos) and it can't be beat! Hang in there...little boys have a special place for their Mamas, and you're a great one!!
