There are so many things for which to be thankful, Loving God. May this day be filled with joy, laugher and wonder. Help us to make memories with those we are with, and look forward to the times when we gather with those who could not be with us today. May we take the time to relax and be fully present to those who are with us today. Let us steer away from topics that cause stress and enjoy all this day has to offer. All this we ask in the name of the God who calls us to love one another. Amen
