Anticipation, we all have it! It’s that feeling we get in the pit of our stomach or the core of our heart. Whether it be for good news or bad it effects each one of us differently.

On this day before Thanksgiving I have a great deal of anticipation. I’m making my lists of things to do. I’m thinking about the menu and the seating arrangement. I am planning the entertainment. I’m washing the dishes that get used only on holidays.

Yet in all that hustle and bustle the anticipation of the arrival of my children and grandchildren is what makes these preparations all worth it. Their presence, in my home, is what’s most important. Just being together is what makes this special day meaningful.

I am filled with joyful Anticipation!
