HAPPY (BELATED) THANKSGIVING

It's been awhile. I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I had drafted many Thanksgiving posts in my mind. We have so much to give thanks for this year. Unfortunately health was not one of them. My little boy got a virus a few days before Thanksgiving. By the time the holiday rolled around, his fever had hit 103.5. So no holiday travel and family dinners for our boy. I would've been content staying at home with the family, but our little Livija had made a marshmallow pie, and was so excited to see her cousins. So Papa and Kalvis stayed home, while Livija and I ventured out for Thanksgiving dinner.
To say I was disappointed is an understatement. Poor me. Poor Kalvis. He's home on Thanksgiving. So soon we take things for granted. The fact of the matter is, HE IS HOME ON THANKSGIVING. There is still endless thanks to give.
I hope you all had a wonderful holiday, full of many things to be thankful for this year. Let the Christmas excitement begin!

This picture--WOW--I'm speechless. LOVE IT! BTW, I have the same "Merry Christmas" sign. I might have thought you'd stolen it from me if I didn't see it hanging on my living room wall......

Marcie I am so glad you guys are making such big steps in Kalvis' transition from foster care to real family. I am sure everyday is full of happy tears and frustrated tears. He is so beautiful and he looks like he is gonna be a character once he comes into his own. BTW, What about Imants not having any Thanksgiving??? Poor Imants, nobody loves him anymore. LMAO
