It sure seems that the seasons fly by a little faster when the number of decades of your remaining lifespan can be counted on the fingers of one hand (with a spare finger or two). Honestly, it seems I was just enjoying the colorful daylilies in my garden and here we are again in the season of falling leaves, snow flurries, and all things pumpkin-spiced.
With Thanksgiving nearly upon us, I’m mulling over this year’s menu and wondering when we can squeeze in a rare family photo. In my mind’s eye, there will be tasty food, a fire in the fireplace, fun games, and the snapping of a family photo.
My greatest anticipation and the thing I especially enjoy about Thanksgiving is the “gather” part.
Here’s a little nostalgic reminisce from a Thanksgiving page of my life. May your gathering – big or small – be blessed and sweet.

Cindie, I am inspired by the simplicity of recording such beautiful memories based upon old photographs.
We don’t do Thanksgiving in Ireland. But then again, every day/week can be a thanksgiving! I am so thankful for everything the past year has brought, and in that I also include loving memories of my dear mam.
Who knows? After the mayhem of my book launch next week, I may settle in to recording memories of old… Thank you for the nudge to move it along! ❤️

You are most welcome, Páraig. My own post has reminds me that I need to spend more time working on that family photo project and write down the stories I’ve been told. Sounds like a good project for the long winter months. I hope that your book launch is everything you dream for it to be. You have my greatest respect and admiration for this accomplishment.
