Kelli at There's No Place Like Home is celebrating Thanksgiving! Here's what she says,
We are taking this week (Monday-Thursday) to prepare our hearts and homes for this wonderful time of year. My Thanksgiving project, daily cleaning challenge and poem, are located directly below this post.
I would love for you to join in the fun! Mr. Linky is available for you to sign and here are some things you could share on your blog:

Thanks to everyone who stopped by yesterday and especially those who paused to comment.
I want to tell you today how I woke to see the Lord's handiwork in the form of a beautiful wintry landscape. All day long a light snow has been falling, which is a first for us in our region this year.
As I watched out the window for a few minutes, I was reminded how scientists tell how every flake is unique. Here's a little excerpt from Wired magazine...
By growing snow crystals in the laboratory under controlled conditions, the research team discovered that they develop differently depending on the temperature and how wet the air is.
A typical snowflake begins by forming around a speck of dust. From this unassuming beginning it grows into a tiny hexagonal prism, just a few microns in size. The initial symmetry of the snowflake results from the intrinsic molecular structure of ice.
As the crystal grows, it's often blown about in the sky. The air and temperature around the crystal are constantly changing. Snowflakes are extremely sensitive; even a small change in these conditions can lead to different growth patterns.
The final shape of the crystal reflects these growth conditions. The longer the snowflake is blown about in the skies, the more complex the resulting snow crystal.
"No two crystals have the same history so they don't grow in the same way," said Libbrecht.
And, he added, no two have ever been the same, or ever will be.
so are my ways higher than your ways,
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
