Weekend Assignment #86: Who are you thankful for -- who you won't be able to spend this Thanksgiving with? This is a chance to tell us about the people you care about who will be far away from you this holiday, or who have passed on but remain inyour heart.
Extra Credit: Pumpkin pie vs. pecan pie -- which do you choose for Thanksgiving dessert?
Here's two people I wish could be here with me this Thanksgiving...
--Me and my mom...1995 (I know it's not the best pic, but it's all I had.)
I miss her terribly, and I wish she could be here to play with the kids...she would love them. She was goofy, and they'd get a kick out of her.
This is my sister, Phyllis...she passed on back in 1990, to her own personal battles. I didn't even get to say goodbye...I was 13. I miss her dearly...if only she was here...
As for the extra credit, pumpkin's my favorite--with loads of cool whip on it. Unfortunately, I can't compare it to pecan...never had it. I know, I'm missing out.
til next time...=)
I miss my mom terribly at this time of year,too. Wish she could have stayed a little longer. Blessings, Penny
