Thanks for the pings, y’all! Enjoyed them all.

just wanted to wish you all a very happy turkey day, where ever you are. :)

The blessings/graphics reminded me of something I wanted to share with y’all—a few days ago, my daughter, MIL, and both grandsons met me for lunch. We got our food, sat down at the table and started eating. Oldest gson(2 1/2) said, “Wait! We have to say the blessing!”

My MIL said the standard “God is great.”

A few more bites, and he looked at me and said, “You say it, Oma.”

We tried to tell him once was enough, but no go.

I asked him, “What do you want me to say? What you usually say?” He nodded. I said, “Blessing, blessing, blessing. Amen.” That satisfied him and we started eating again.

Don’t know if Y’all have heard it or not, but there’s a real popular country song out now—something to the effect of—God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy.

He was singing it under his breath. MIL only heard the God is great part and she was complimenting him on how well he had learned to say grace. Daughter and I were about to roll.
