It is a beautiful, albeit frosty, morning. Sam has joined the "Early Bird Club" with me on this Sunday morn. He has developed a cough and warm temperature over the night, and we both now sit on the couch watching Scooby Doo. There is something about weekend morning cartoons. Saturdays were always my childhood memories of waking up and tuning into a variety of shows, both live and in animated form. Now I sit with Sam, enjoying some old favorites! Poor kiddo can't seem to catch a break with his health lately!
We look forward, now, to a short week of school and work, as we prepare for our annual pilgrimage (pun intended) to Virginia for Thanksgiving! I have already packed, and Sam designed the Turkey Trot medals for this year's run. The rest of the family will pack today, and we will hit the road! We have much to be thankful for this year. Yesterday, as a way to give a small amount back, I took Audrey and Violet to volunteer a couple hours for Bags of Hope, a food distribution program for families in need. We helped pack 80 boxes of Thanksgiving dinner items to be delivered to a variety of families and organizations throughout the area. I was proud of both ladies, as they worked hard and helped beyond themselves.
So now that brings us to now. The coffee is hot, the cinnamon rolls are about to finish in the oven, and another episode of Scooby Doo is about to begin. We have plans to set-up the Christmas Tree and Hanukah items out today, which would be a nice thing to have done before break. Anything this morning to keep a little kid busy and forgetting he has a cold. Tis the season.
