Timely and on topic. That’s me!
For FHE the week of Thanksgiving we taught the lesson on recognizing our blessings and showing our gratitude for them. Lately I’ve been trying to get the boys into crafting so… we made gratitude turkeys!
Don’t be jealous of our mad crafting skills.
Ezra cut out the feathers himself (with kid-safe scissors – don’t freak out) and wrote the majority of his blessings himself with the exception of Grandma and video games (next weeks lesson is on priorities… jk). He ran out of room with Kenzie, so the i and e are on top. I thought it was sweet that he listed David as one of his blessings – even before Christina. He has always loved David so much and considers him family. We do, too. I’m also amazed/shocked/happy that Memphis made the list. Day to day whining, pushing, and toy stealing might lead one to believe otherwise.
As far as Thanksgiving Day itself I have two words for you: crockpot turkey. Life changing. It was Brad’s idea and I’ll never go back. Ideas like that are why I married that man. Brilliant.
