Thanksgiving
Parents, brothers, cousins (and aunts and uncles and grandparents), that hotel lobby that we visit every year because it makes fake snow, rushing around baking pies and gravy and whatever else, (and I knocked over the flour again but she doesn’t seem mad), running around malls lit-up with plastic garlands and kindergarten friends, and wacky traditions that now seem bittersweet.
