forever grateful, this year and every year, that my family does not do a 5k, play touch football, or do any kind of physical activity whatsoever on thanksgiving

I don’t want to sit at the adult table at Thanksgiving and talk about things like mortgage rates. I want to sit at the grandparent table and talk about things like how hard it is to drive at night.

I’m in the kitchen baking for Thanksgiving, so naturally my kids have decided to build a fort in here and my husband is helping by standing in front of the stove.
