Summary
Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃🦃🦃
I hope you are surrounded by friends and family today with the smell of familiar food floating through the house. There’s so much to be thankful for this year, but I’m especially thankful to be walking this parenting road together with each of you. It’s a true gift.
Today we have Kayla Craig with us and we’re discussing liturgies and how they add a richness to our prayer life. So often we overcomplicate prayer or even find ourselves at a loss for words—praying liturgies is a wonderful way to bridge the gap.
I’ll leave you with a list I wrote a few years ago of the top 10 ways to determine if your Thanksgiving was an epic fail.
1.) When sharing what they are thankful for, your first guest responds, “Thanksgiving rotates to a new house next year.”
2.) Your mother-in-law questions why your “homemade” pumpkin pie has a Costco imprint across the top.
3.) Despite dieting all year, you’re still asked to play linebacker in the annual family football game.
4.) When the conversation gets slow around the table, you nervously share your annual income and who you voted for in the last election.
5.) Several relatives tentatively decline your Christmas invitation pending ancestry results.
6.) When guests ask how they can help after the meal, your husband accidentally responds, “Why start now?”
7.) Grandpa grabs the Gas-X before agreeing to a game of Twister with the kids.
8.) After replacing the batteries on the meat thermometer, you decide “done” is a relative term.
9.) You receive multiple copies of the book Parenting with Love and Logic as hostess gifts.
10.) The Turkey Trot isn’t a family 5K but rather a reminder of how fast people exited your house after the meal ended.
All kidding aside, I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

| 0:03.5 | This is Cynthia Yannoff, and you're listening to Pardon the Mess. |
| 0:16.1 | Each week we have honest discussions about the ups and downs of parenting and the lessons God is teaching us along the way. It's real, it's fun, and it's biblical. Life is messy. Don't walk |
| 0:26.1 | the parenting road alone. Hey guys, welcome to part of the mess. I'm so glad you're with us. |
| 0:34.2 | If you are listening to this on the day it's released, then happy Thanksgiving. I'm guessing |
| 0:39.5 | a lot of you will listen to it a little bit later, and that's wonderful too. But I hope everyone |
| 0:42.9 | has a wonderful Thanksgiving with lots of family and food. And in our house, there's football, |
| 0:48.6 | both watching the Dallas Cowboys, because that's our team here. And also the family football game where we all come together at the |
| 0:55.7 | park and play good old-fashioned game of flag football with all the kids. And it's super fun. And so I hope |
| 1:03.3 | it has been an awesome day, Thanksgiving weekend. And here we go into Advent. And I don't know |
| 1:09.7 | about you. I love Thanksgiving. I love |
| 1:11.2 | that it's relaxed and all the fun of it. Now I will say that I feel high pressure the Friday after |
| 1:16.1 | because I'm still in that Black Friday mode even though we really don't do Black Friday anymore. |
| 1:20.3 | Everything's just kind of on sale and it's online. But I feel like that's the day that I have to |
| 1:25.1 | like get the deals and put up the tree and decorate the house and all the things. |
| 1:28.6 | And so it goes from like, oh, relaxing Thanksgiving mode to crazy town. |
| 1:32.5 | And I guess that's kind of the theme of December so often. |
| 1:35.5 | And so today I just want to take a minute and sit back and we're going to talk with Kayla |
| 1:40.2 | Craig. |
| 1:40.6 | If you didn't hear Monday's podcast with Kayla, you want to go back and check it out. |
| 1:46.7 | Our prayer podcast, she talked with us all about Thanksgiving and liturgies. And I mentioned |
| 1:52.8 | this on Monday's podcast, but I didn't grow up in a traditional situation where we use liturgies |
