Cornucopia of Good Wishes

For as long as I can remember, every Thanksgiving, we go around the table and say what we're grateful for. (One year, Caleb horrified us by being grateful for ... President Bush.)

This year, if it didn't sound so stilted and strange to say it out loud, I'd say that I'm grateful that there are people in the world whose mere existence delights me--and vice versa. So I'm saying it here. And if you think I might be talking about you, you are absolutely right.

President Bush? Gah! That's hilarious. And here I thought only Bush was the only person grateful for Bush...

my son, when he was 6, said he was thankful for his butt -- in front of all his uptight aunts, uncles, grandparents, and even people he didn't know. another year, when he was 4 and his brother was 2, they got totally naked and ran around the table -- ahhhh...kids
