Description
This partial Thanksgiving centerpiece was used on my sister's Thanksgiving table four years ago. She was a classy lady who was a very good cook! Unbeknownst to us, it would be her last Thanksgiving with her family as she died the following year on Thanksgiving Day.
I visited my sister during that Thanksgiving and I am so thankful that I made the effort to travel so far to share such a special holiday with her. We had not spent Thanksgiving together in over 30 years! " Thanksgiving Remembrance" came from a point and shoot camera. What you don't see is the family gathered around, the good food on the table, and the love that was shared.
We should all " seize the moment, seize the day" as we never know if we will have another opportunity to do that which we know we should do! I am very thankful that in this instance I did!
