Lara, tell me the story about Thanksgiving. What happened? Lara looks at me questioningly.
You know, the people got in the boat... yeah! and over the ocean!
Right! Then what? They went to the castle! But there was no castle.
They went to America. There were no houses or stores.
So they went inside and oh! there was cinderella! they thought it was a cookie monster but it was not, it was Cinderella and- Okay! good! moving on
They needed help to find food. Who helped them? Pocahontas!! Yessss...the Native Americans
They had food and felt all better so they decided to have a PPPAARRRTTYYY!
Um, yes, a feast. And there was lots and lots of FOOD! Yeah! They had cakes! And juice! And cupcakes...and pizza...
sure, okay, so we call this Thanksgiving
Yeah...FANKSGIVING!!

I am doing a little project with Lara I've entitled "The 10 Days of Thanksgiving." There's nothing 
to it. I just drew some turkeys, and every day, we discuss one thing Lara is thankful for, put it on one of the turkeys, and put the turkey up on the wall. I've been impressed with some of the things Lara has told me she is thankful for. I don't expect that she really understands the concept, which is why it throws us when she tells us she is thankful for "forgiveness" and "Jesus." Talk about a toddler putting things in perspective for you.
