Family

Last night we had our Thanksgiving dinner… the de-boned turkey was yummy. The dinner lasted maybe half an hour… and then it was all done. The kids were put to bed and then the adults chilled.

Despite the fact that my family growing up was not all warm and fuzzy… it is all I knew. So often I have missed having a “family home” to go … I realized that having my brother here… is being IN family. It is a good feeling… being together. The cousins being typical kids, loving each other and fighting the next moment. My sister-in-law and my husband laughing at the corks of being a Dixit…

Family… it really does come in all sorts of mismatched ways. It doesn’t have to be a mom and dad with the white picket fence… although that would be nice… it can be simply the comfort of just BEING with another part of you that is just as crazy… or even more crazy! 🙂
