Thanksgiving Greetings 2006
I posted this message last year on Thanksgiving eve, and wanted to repost it for this one as well because the message in it still (and always will) hold true. Some links have been updated.
——–
Here we are on the eve of Thanksgiving. Some will be traveling to celebrate the holiday with family and friends, while others will be hosting the annual feast. Our families will congregate around a table, eat some good food, share laughs and memories, along with hugs and kisses … laughter and tears.
But while we’re gathered together with our families, let’s remember also take a moment to say thanks and pray for those who can’t be home with their families this year: our men and women serving overseas. Year after year, they have made tremendous sacrifices in the war on terror – and as we know, some have made the ultimate sacrifice.
Thoughts and prayers also should go out to the families of our men and women who are serving – they live each day anxious to know what’s happening with their loved one(s), wanting to find out if they are ok, when they are returning home, and if they will see them again. Many military families will set their Thanksgiving tables one plate less this year, due to death in the line of duty, or the continued overseas service of their loved one(s). Those still serving abroad will have their Thanksgiving turkey with their fellow soldiers, no doubt thinking of their families and friends back home.
So as we get together to celebrate the holidays with our families and give thanks, please make sure to remember to give a word of thanks and pray for all those who have served, are continuing to serve, their families who wait for them back home, and also the families of those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. America stands strong and proud today thanks to the hard work, dedication, and sacrifices of great military men and women. This incredibly moving photo montage is one of many that captures and documents their heroism.
God bless to everyone, travel safe if you are on the road, and have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
(Thanks to ST reader Fat Tone and also WildPonyMom for the links)

Also remember the men at Valley Forge and all the battles that General George Washington and all the troops at the beginning of this fine Country had fought and died for to bring us the freedoms that we now enjoy and to give thanks to all our founding fathers for what we have today. Amen.
Excellent Video. Happy Thanksgiving Dearest!!! Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!! God Bless America!!! God Bless Our Troops!!! We love you and we pray for your safe and Victorious return!!! – Lorica
Happy Thanksgiving, Sis! Enjoy!
Here’s some stuff to be thankful for – while this might seem frivolous, I believe that one benefit of living in America is that we have the leisure time, wealth, and security to have harmless fun. Anyway, those who read Instapundit (and who doesn’t?) might have seen this link already – if you didn’t read it and start going “Hmmmm..” then you’re not a real American!

- here’s hoping St and her family, and all the regulars on Sister Toldjah are having a great holiday. Yesterday we went out for a nice dinner and some shopping, and no sooner did we get home as I was putting some things away from our shopping trip and getting settled un for the evening, did I hear my som shouting. I ran out to see what the comotion was all about. turns out while we were gone, his pet caterpillar crycillis have blossomed into a beautiful Giant Yellow-tail butterfly. soon as I can I’ll send a few pics along to Sis so she can share.
- Lets hope its a sign of a great and prosperous year, with peace and love for all of our families, especially our men and women in America’s armed forces overseas, that can’t be with their loved one’s during this holiday season. wiah them all well, and a small prayer for all of their safe returns.
