My Family at Home

      My home is where family come together, we assemble on a Sunday for fellowship and dinner after church. Gathered together are sisters, cousins and friends old and new, all coming together to laugh play games and tell stories.  At my house you will find people in just about every room. a seat where you can, some on chairs, while some gather on the floor, some around the kitchen table or in the living room. it is full of hungry children and adults.

Mom or to some I’m called Mema, you will find me in the kitchen over the stove preparing a hardy meal for my large clan.  You would think it was thanksgiving at my house.  The kitchen will have an aromas of fresh greens with smoked turkey wings, bread in the oven or a cake in the oven for dessert The children are running in and out of the house shouting at one another. The adult is sitting around reminiscing. The game or a movie playing on the television as well.

Once Dinner is ready we would all gather around the dining room table and have grandpa would bless the food. Everybody loves it when grandpa bless the food, because it will be definite be short, after dinner we all gather in the living room and play games, or some would just lounge around and some sleep.



In this house you will find love, laughter
and enjoyment. Always looking forward to the next time we come together again.
