For the last twenty years or so, my wife and I have spent every Thanksgiving with my parents. However, my parents both passed away this year. Everyone says the holidays are hard times after a loss, and I’ve had two of them, so I’ve been a bit concerned about how this Thanksgiving would go. Fortunately, some good friends have invited us to join them for dinner.
This year, my friends have helped me through a lot, and they’re still helping. This Thanksgiving, I’m thankful for my friends.
I’m glad you had people with you for your first Thanksgiving without your parents.
