Sweet Memories

I am a career woman with one child, striving to find a better balance between life/work. I enjoy documenting memories, and am striving to get more creative with sharing them with others. I struggle with making decisions, and am seeking a stronger support system and want to learn from others' experiences. I want to connect more with those that have a sweet sensitive spirit.

Happy Thanksgiving

I was reminded of Thanksgiving traditions as I watched my daughter's preschool perform their Thanksgiving Play. Kayla chose to be a Pilgrim, and after they came over on the Mayflower, they met with the Indians, "We come in Peace", and the Indians taught the Pilgrims how to Shoot a bow and arrow, chop down trees, hunt animals...etc....(we wont tell Little Zack that Kayla received her bow and arrow set from her daddy a few weeks ago)...it was so much fun watching her perform this play and sing songs about being Thankful....I am thankful sometimes that I am in Retail and have never missed an event at her school, my schedule allowing me to be flexible to attend every one and also volunteering the help her school with every event...not all parents were able to be there, only three. I am grateful today for my family, for their health...and that I have had the opportunity to live right next to Plymouth, Mass and be so close to the Pilgrims at this time of the year. We had the opportunity to live in the Captain of the Mayflower's sons house at one time, for an entire year. Alexander Standish's home. I love New England and this time of the year. We are so lucky to experience this time of year here. I will be setting that 2 day sale tonight, but I will remember that I am thankful for what will be waiting for me at home when I get there. We are ready to entertain, have everything pre-cooked and look forward to seeing my Mother in law and Kaylas cousins tomorrow....
