Thanksgiving with William was alright. It didn’t have the same feeling and excitement I am used to. Instead, I felt strained. I tried to capture the cheerful feeling of the occasion but it was forced.

I cooked for most of the day but William did not say anything about the meal. It hurt me a little. I suppose his mind is on more important things. I would have liked it if he had tried to make this day special for both of us since he will be leaving very soon but he didn’t. Except for the meal, it was like any other day.

The thing that gave me the greatest happiness today happened just before I came to bed. I went into the kitchen and found that Thomas had come in and set all the dishes I had made up for him on the table. They were all completely clean. He had eaten all of the food. When I picked them up to put them away I found the note I had written him torn into the shape of a heart.

I cried - It made me so happy!
