Around this time, a prayer I learned as a child from my mother comes to mind:
Thank you for the world so sweet
Thank you for the food we eat
Thank you for the birds that sing
Thank you God, for everything
– E. Rutter Leatham
I loved the simplicity of this poem and it always evokes childhood memories for me. I remember sitting down with my mother and saying it over and over until I had it memorized. I looked up the author of this poem and found it here.
It was a beautiful day today, perfect for sitting outside with friends.
It is not complete without the guava punch.
A table set with napkin rings made out of paper beads.
Sweet sticky rice wrapped in banana leaves.
Salted eggs
Turkey cup cakes that someone brought over to share.
Here’s to all the things that we’re thankful for….
