November brought huge change. The single most important thing is big news! We are adding another to our family! This is a huge blessing and we are supremely fortunate to be able to go through this process again. There will be a much more in-depth post regarding this later in this month.
My dad also was able to come down in November to hang out and it was really nice seeing him. He bought Lindsey and I some great, heartfelt gifts from his trip to Italy. It was really nice of him. Although the gifts were a nice gesture, I really enjoyed his pictures from the visit. I have a lot of family over there and it was awesome to see their faces again. Seeing that they are still around and still smiling.
Thanksgiving came and went and the food was plentiful. It’s funny every thanksgiving I am reminded how much I am in need of nothing. I have a great wife and family, a roof over my head, etc, etc. You know the story, But it’s true. As Americans and being engulfed in the American culture, we have this haze of entitlement and want. Thanksgiving is a great time because no one has to buy anyone anything, there are no expectations. We just sit down and eat. Who would have thought that would be enough?
I am looking forward to December and what it has to offer. The weather is getting colder down here and although nothing like CT, there is a certain special chill in the air.
