Thanksgiving Stories Around the Table — 16 Comments

  1. Melissa, we will be doing the same – just my husband and I will be at our Thanksgiving dinner. Our family is so far away and those close by are quarantining as well. But the Lord will be present, and as you said, our loved ones will be here in our thoughts. Happy Thanksgiving.

  2. I’m grateful that with all the horrific experiences our family endured this year that we are all still alive, able to communicate via Facetime or Zoom, and that next year promises to hold more times that we’ll be able to see one another. This year has been like no other. Thank you for sharing your own unique Thanksgiving. Congratulations on the soon-to-be-born grandbaby!

    • Your family is in my prayers Melinda. The grand baby was born on Friday, Nov. 13th. A girl. Eden is her name. We are thanking God for healthy and happy baby and Mommy. Eden joins big brother Rowan, Mommy, Daddy and doggy Olive.

  3. I love this. Even though it’s hard, there’s something kind of exciting about a “different” holiday. This year we might be in quarantine (we shall see; fingers crossed!). But we did get to “adopt” a family and buy them Thanksgiving groceries, which was a REALLY beautiful experience. There is beauty in change and difference. We just need to look for it a little deeper sometimes.

  4. Thanks Melissa. I agree. I am so thankful that my two daughters are healthy and willing to keep themselves and others safe during this crazy time. It will be different, but instead of feeling sad that I don’t get to be with them for Thanksgiving, I’m going to be even more thankful that God has simply give me the two best gifts ever.

  5. Thank you Melissa as I am sure many will be spending time away from their family but will still have them in their thoughts and prayers! May God bless you and your family!
