Supernova shoes. Should probably get these on the shoe log.

50 minutes running with about 5 of that a warmup walk. 3 minute walk cooldown. TM run to loosen the legs from Turkey bowl football yesterday. There are muscles that I don't use very often that during football get tweaked. I'm sore!

For Thanksgiving dinner one of my nephews(10 yrs. old) proposed a "toast" of our water glasses. Most of us said to"family" which of course is what life is all about to me. My mother in law was however tempted to say "Dishwasher" because they recently had theirs replaced.

I was reading this and it touched me because of the Thanksgiving season.

 From Thomas S. Monson "A Sanctuary from the World".

When we are tired or ill or discouraged, how sweet the comfort of being able to turn homeward. We are blessed to belong and to have a place in the family circle.

At times we may become bored or irritated with home and family and familiar surroundings. Such may seem less than glamorous, with a sense of sameness, and other places may sometimes seem more exciting. But when we have sampled much and have wandered far and have seen how fleeting and sometimes superficial a lot of the world is, our GRATITUDE grows for the privilege of being part of something we can count on--home and family and the loyalty of loved ones. We come to know what it means to be bound together by duty, by respect, by belonging. We learn that nothing can fully take the place of the blessed relationship of family life.

All of us remember the home of our childhood. For most of us, our thoughts do not dwell on whether the house was large or small, the neighborhood fashionable or downtrodden. Rather, we delight in the experiences we shared as a family.

That's lovely, Jeff. I'm sure you felt it more than ever with little Nova there.

Thank you for sharing that

Rachel- that is what your family reminds me of. That's why I fell for Mike missing out on "stuff" happening.

Cynthia,

Yes that brought it all home, so to speak.

Hope you all enjoy your families today. I will be spending a lot of it with my 4 year old as she adjusts to having a little sister. Reading and puzzles with a little memory game thrown in.
