Family!

One of my favorite traditions that my family has is before Thanksgiving dinner we go out and delver Thanksgiving dinners to families who can not afford to get it themselves. I always remember mom and dad waking me up early in the morning and going to the Red Lobseter where the group of people who were going to delver these meals would meet and load their cars with food for others. I loved getting out of the car at the houses and giving the meals to the families and seeing their faces light up, that really made my day. One time when I was younger I asked my parents why do we have to do this? They responded saying because We should be thankful for all that we have and give to the people who do not have as much. They then told me to look at how happy each family is when they get their meals and how thankful they are. They told me this should make me grateful as well for everything I have. From then on I love to delver meals on Thanksgiving with my family.
