It would be my first Thanksgiving since my father moved to heaven, and it would also be my first Thanksgiving being away from my family. Holidays are
____when you can’t be with family, and I was mourning (哀悼)the
____of my dad and feeling sad about being
____from my family in Indiana. But, that sadness turned into
____when it hit me: I was going to have to prepare a traditional Thanksgiving
____myself!
That night at Dubya’s Restaurant, which was our favorite place to
____, I began discussing the dilemma (困境)with Jeff.“It’s too bad that this place won’t be
____on Thanksgiving, or we could just come here,”I said.
Dubya, the owner of the restaurant, happened to be
____by our table when I said those words.“You mean you expect me to
____for you on Thanksgiving, too?”he teased (取笑)“ Well, I guess you’ll just have to come to our
____since the restaurant will be closed then.”.
We’d become
____with Dubya and his wife, as we ate at Dubya’s twice a week; however, I didn’t think we were close enough to
____Thanksgiving dinner with his family. I was sure he was
____ But as we headed toward the door, Dubya handed Jeff a note with directions to their house and their phone number. “You’re
____?” I asked “Of course,” he said.
And, two days later, we reached Dubya’s house. Everyone
____us. As expected, the food was marvelous but the company was even better. We truly felt that we
____there.
Of course, I wrote them a thank-you note the next week, but I couldn’t really
____into words what that Thanksgiving dinner
____had meant to us. I’ve never forgotten their kindness and that very
____Thanksgiving.

____your family?
