Tonight my immediate family will gather at the house to celebrate Thanksgiving. It has always been the tradition among us to observe the holidays early. This allows the children and their families to go to the in-laws and/or to observe other celebrations they want to be part of on the actual holiday itself.
The menu tonight is a bit odd. Breakfast food. Huh? Everyone said they felt they would have plenty of traditional Thanksgiving food before the holidays were over, so they want to do something different tonight.
I have decided this is an appropriate action on our part. The Pilgrims ate sausage; no wait, they ate turkey. Well at least they ate pancakes; oops, they ate hoecakes.
All kidding aside, one important thing we will share with the Pilgrims is hearts thankful for what God has provided us. We rightly say "God bless America." It would also be wise to say, "America bless God." Happy Thanksgiving. Remember Him for Whom the holiday was established.
