Thanksgiving is all about giving thanks, and one of the beautiful traditions in our family is sharing our gratitude before indulging in the feast. Each person takes a moment to express one thing they're thankful for from the past year. It's a heartwarming practice, especially considering health challenges some family members faced and overcame.
Maintaining an attitude of abundance, gratitude, and humility is crucial during Thanksgiving dinner. It transforms the atmosphere and helps everyone appreciate the blessings, big or small. Keeping this mindset is essential, especially when life throws challenges your way.
Not every household experiences a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner, but with a bit of creativity, you can make yours memorable. Consider celebrating birthdays during Thanksgiving meals, engage in family game nights, or revive cherished traditions like post-lunch Euchre games.
