A New England Tradition on ThanksgivingNovember 24th 2010 7:25 am[ Leave A Comment | 10 people already have ]
As Thanksgiving is tomorrow, I know it is a difficult time for so many with the economy and many struggle to make ends meet. It's been a hard year with illness, sadness and loss for others as well. Thru my sadness with Willie's loss, I have much to still be thankful for.

Being lucky enough to have unbelievably wonderful & true friends like you is very high on my list. I've got a very special place in my heart with your names on it. Many, many hugs full of love & gratitude to you... Muffin Thanks for sharing the Thanksgiving story with us. We are so thankful for all our pals here on dogster, like you! Happy Thanksgiving Angel Willie & Joni! Woof Woof, Buddy As we too have found many times.. Blessings are not "material" Love to you Joni.... Flicka ∆,,∆ & Lucas /..| Cleo (I.M.) ∆,,∆ & Pam X Dear Joni and Angel Willie~ The five kernels of corn story is very moving and something for us all to remember... wonderful friends here on Dogster have added joy (and, yes, sometimes shared grief) to our lives... We have a roof over our heads and computers to keep in touch with all of our wonderful friends (who have many times proven more compassionate than people in the outer world)... Our love of our dogs & other pets, here and at the Bridge, with the knowledge that one day we'll all be re-united... Freedoms unknown in other countries... and troops around the world to protect those freedoms (even if we don't agree with the various wars). Yes, we all have much more than tangible things to be deeply grateful for. You're in our hearts and we have struggled with you in our minds to accept the loss of Willie and our own loved ones with the knowledge that one day our own turn will come and we will be able to come to Dogster knowing that here there are people who really do care! May the love and memories you shared with your precious Willie bring you comfort this Thanksgiving day. Love, Sully, Socks & Mom Happy Thanksgiving! That was furry interesting, and a great way to make us think of just how thankful we all really should be! Aunt Joni, mom had totally forgotten about the five kernels of corn! She grew up in New England and did that as a child. Thank you for reminding her of that tradition; we all indeed should count our blessings and be grateful for them. Happy Thanksgiving to you! Aunt Joni and Angel Willie- Thank you for telling us about the 5 kernels of corn. We pray the love and precious memories you have with all those years with Willie bring you comfort this day. Happy Thanksgiving to you! xoxoxoxo Mazy and Gma K. Dear Auntie Joni & Angel Willie, What a beautiful tradition and lesson for us all. Let us All remember to Count our blessings not our troubles.
