I am truly thankful for my family. My mom basically cooked my entire Thanksgiving meal for me. (She came to stay at our house for the holiday. She is so wonderful with my children. My chldren helped her with various parts of the meal and then helped with the serving and setting the table at various times during the weekend.
On Friday morning, my dh woke up sick (my mom and I were supposed to be getting out for a little while by ourselves. Since dh could not handle keeping the children by himself, we ended up changing our plans and doing some window shopping with the children. While we were out she bought some things that needed to be put together, so my children did that as a group. It was so wonderful to see them working together.
Tomorrow it is back to school for the children and back to work for my dh.
