It's Not Just Thanksgiving

Every American knows that today is Thanksgiving, but today is not just Thanksgiving in my household. It's Bro #1's birthday!!! Last year around this time, some stuff when down between the scouts in our old town and my father. The sad part is that Bro #1 invited some of his friends, who were part of this problem. Our friends, we'll call them the A's, the A's told us that nothing would come between the kids. Well Bro #1 invited the A's, P's, and O's up the MA for his birthday. When this spilt in scouts happened, we later got a phone call a day before Bro #1s birthday, saying that none of them will be coming up.

This was devestating to Bro #1 and I. The A's are great people, they got my father to attend church, and now they're letting a scouting fued get between the kids, something that they said wouldn't happen. Mom & Dad called the S's, the H's, our grandfather, and the nextdoor neighbors and all invited them to Bro #1s birthday. Although the A's, O's, and P's weren't at his birthday, and Bro #1 was kind of down, so was I, we had a great birthday. It also made us all realize what to be thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! May your travels be safe and keep your blessings in mind.
