thanksgiving in a nut shell

i suppose thanksgiving is officially over... well, the holiday that is. but thanksgiving should never end, especially when you have so much to be thankful for as i do.
.
the last few days have gone relatively fast, though they have been wrought with some stress and a dash of busyness. two thanksgiving dinners in one day, work, shopping on black friday, out-of-town guests, and babysitting two extra animals is my proof (okay, the one animal is a hermit crab... so what?!).
.
though much has happened this week, i will keep this short... here are a few quotes from my holiday:
.
1) sarah: "if you didn't need a rooster to fertilize the eggs in order to get eggs from the chickens, then why did you have a rooster?"
sarah's mom: "i guess to keep all the hens happy."
.
2) sarah: "why did all the birds fly away and hide?"
alex: "because the incredible hawk was eating them."
.
3) sonja: "daddy, can you help me draw a bird?"
me: "i don't think i can draw a bird."
sonja: "yeah, sometimes when birds die, we have to trace them."
.
and that's that.
.
remember mumbai.
