Daddy - I wondered how Thanksgiving would be - I knew it would be different but at 3:00 a.m. Thursday ( thanksgiving Day ) I had to bake 2 turkeys for our meal at Church. I pulled out the gizzards and necks from both turkeys and it hit - I cried for the longest time. I always boiled the turkey neck for you and I has 2 and didn't know what to do with them. I guess there'll always be the little things that seem to be so big now - because they just don't fit in place with you not here. Everyone had to say what they were thankful for this Thanksgiving - I guess I was thankful to be here to spend so many Thanksgivings with you. It doesn't make it any easier - one day maybe I can laugh about it but not yet. Everybody says once you go through the holidays one time it gets easier - I find that hard to believe. Anyway, I really miss you and wish you were here. I would say take care of yourself and see you tomorrow - but .... I do miss you and love you so much. Bye for now.
