.......well ladies....despite a few short and brief crying sessions before Thanksgiving.....I'm happy to report that I made it through this holiday, the first holiday in my son's 19 years, that we were not together. Granted I didn't cook the turkey, had boiled Maine lobster instead......and probably failed in many other ways to recognize the Holiday itself.....but.....still made it through....
What really helped me was remembering and praying for those mothers with sons and daughters in the service, overseas.....
Hope the rest of you Moms whose sons did not/could not make it home for Thanksgiving did well too.....
Thank goodness he'll be here for Christmas.....don't think I could ignore much of that Holiday.....especially the gifts.....
