I'm a bit late this week, but I'm taking a mini-vacation, so I hope you'll forgive me.
I saved my family for Thanksgiving Thursday - I'm very blessed to have my parents, MJ, and MJ's family, who have been so welcoming to me. Five years ago, I was in a family of 3, with 2 of them being half-way across the country. Now, I have my own household of 2, my parents closer, and MJ's other 6. Holiday and life celebrations abound!
I think one way to show thanksgiving to those we love is to spend time together. share experiences, really listen and participate in conversations (instead of splitting your attention with your phone), and just be together. People are in our lives for only a limited time - embrace those moments while you can!
What relationships are you thankful for today? How can you show your appreciation to your loved ones?

we fight the fight with the phones all the time...holidays a re nice time to remove that distraction. Hopefully we can do that more in everyday....
Indeed, I may be the worst offender with the phone in our household. And it's largely habit, rather interest in what's on the phone/internet or non-interest in what's going on right in front of me.
Definitely a goal.
