‘Twas The Night Before Thanksgiving
As Turkey Day draws near,
I reflect on the year with cheer,
Grateful for Jack and Jacob, my shining stars,
Watching them grow, learning, playing, exploring afar.
With parents and brother who support and friends who care,
We’ve faced life’s twists with love and prayer,
God’s guidance our anchor, steadfast and strong,
Through ups and downs, we’ve sung our happy song!
This year’s been wild, with surprises galore,
Flying to DC, and New Orleans’ Jazz once more!
Biloxi stole our hearts with its charming shore,
And the boys’ first joint birthday party? We wanted more!
Jack’s dancing dazzled, Jacob’s chatter delighted,
Their laughter contagious, our hearts excited!
From playgrounds to classrooms, they’ve grown with glee,
And we’ve cheered them on, proudly, you see!
Romans 8:37 reminds us to face the test, “We are more than conquerors,” we pass with finesse!
Psalm 107:8 echoes gratitude we hold dear,
God’s love and grace lifted us, without a frown,
So here’s to perseverance, love and fun – The recipe for joy, forever begun!
As Thanksgiving dawns, we’ll gather round,
Grateful for blessings, love that’s found,
Through laughter and tears, we’ll hold hands tight,
And shout: “We won’t give up, we’ll shine with all our might!”
Happy Thanksgiving, may your heart be light,
May love, laughter and joy ignite!
