Giving Thanks

Yvette showed up on my doorstep this afternoon with a gift from Rebecca. Before she left for Singapore, Rebecca made arrangements with her to store a few gifts, and have them delivered when appropriate.

The first one, in August, was a fired ceramic plate for my birthday. It is bright and colorful, adorned with a happy butterfly made from Caleb's footprints!

Today's delivery was a Thanksgiving plate, with Caleb's precious little hand print making a turkey... Although it won't be the same this year without them here, Thanksgiving will seem a little less lonely.

I am so thankful for my beautiful, thoughtful daughter!
