And POOF - I was transported back three years right along with you and Christopher to the days before and after Noemi came into your lives. I recognize the power of the word "nourish", because that is what you and Chris have always done for each other, your friends, your readers, your clients. Although I didn't think it was possible for you to impact my senses and my heart more than you already have, familyhood has truly transformed the Hubers. Having been a very willing "victim" of Noemi's considerable charms, and loving her parents as much as I do, "nourishing" takes on a whole new meaning of thankfulness for me from this day forward. Thank you Lia, for sharing this abundant joy with the rest of the world. Happy Thanksgiving!

For me Thanksgiving has always been my favorite because it focused on relationships and not the "stuff" that Christmas can become. Being part of my husband's farm family, where we celebrate Thanksgiving around the same farm table every year with a family that is growing bigger and bigger every year has been one of the best parts of being a Heringer. The children who gathered around that table when I first got married to Scott have all grown up and have children of their own. That makes our surprise baby, Danny, very happy because he is 8 and loves having second cousins to hang with. The nice thing is everyone loves to try new things as long as there are some traditional foods too. I look forward to having grandchildren to join in the tradition and pray that my inlaws live long enough to see that too. The sad part of this is our family farm was sold with life time tenancy of the homes until my inlaws are gone and then all this ends and we will have to start a new tradition. It will break our hearts, I know. I appreciate your sharing the story of linking Thanksgiving and Noemi.
