This story has everything- enough of sorrow and hard work to make me happy that is not required of me and a very sweet ending (real sugar sweet, NOT saccharin too sweet). Just like Keepa to find a tale so right for the upcoming holiday.

I am very blessed.

I love the description of all the beautiful things in the cellar, and I’m especially grateful that all we heard about the turkey is that it was “made ready”.
