My wife is one of six, so when we had (mostly) everyone over for Thanksgiving, the afternoon was spent talking about and chasing after the kinder. Now that the families are older, we still spend much of the day talking about the children, but more now about finances and how to save and make money. Dearsweet and I do most of the dinner prep, with Dearsweet managing the parts requiring magic, I peeling the potatoes, cooking the bacon, chopping the onion. This year my son herded the rest of the kinder into cleaning up! This led inevitably into long discussions among the adults about how they were required or prohibited from Thanksgiving involvement.
