The Note in the Coat The house was filled with laughter that morning. My son, Dylan, sat on the floor, lining up his toy cars in a perfect row, his little tongue sticking out as he focused.

We Played a Game Answering Calls and Texts with Family on Thanksgiving — I Accidentally Exposed My Husband’s Second Family

The Thanksgiving Text That Shattered Everything Thanksgiving had always been my favorite holiday. There was just something magical about it—the laughter, the smell of turkey roasting in the oven, the sound of my kids arguing over who got the last scoop of mashed potatoes.
