The Planets Aligned

Thanksgiving dinner was a great success.

...and the rolls weren't bad either.

Kellen had a blast with his cousins. As he has gotten older, they have been playing a bigger role in his life. They are all in their late teens and early twenties. He watches football with them and a couple of them will even put up with his kisses. I appreciate them more than they know.

Around 8:45 Kellen told me he wanted to go home. I was so proud of him for being with us and maintaining his composure for several hours in someone else's house. We barely got out the door and into the car in time. There he "blew" as he needed to vent his anxiety. All in all, he exceeded my expectations. Thanks buddy.

Glad you had a good Thanksgiving. I think Kellen's patience with relatives exceeds my own ;-)
