Dear Alyssa,
It is that time again and we are again celebrating without you. It sucks that this is what life has given to us to deal with but as always I am thankful for the memories I have of our holidays together. I was thinking today of our last Thanksgiving together baking a pumpkin pie with you making a huge mess in the kitchen and all of the help that you were on Thanksgiving helping to create our meal. The smile on your face while u helped with the pumpkin pie is one that I will never forget. I don't know if your love was for baking or if it was just being able to spend time with me in the kitchen. I loved teaching you things...especially to cook. The conversation that would come because of those experiences is priceless to me. I was always learning more from you than I think you were from me. I am and will alway be thankful that we were able to spend so much time together experiencing life. I keep thinking about the change in recipes with our pumpkin pie and you know to this day I don't make a pumpkin pie according to the directions.
