George Washington declared a Thanksgiving Proclamation of 1789.
"May we all unite in rendering unto God our sincere and humble thanks ---
For His kind care and protection of the people of this country,
For the great degree of tranquility, union and plenty which we have enjoyed. "
Washington continues on and asks God "To protect and guide all nations and to bless them with good government, peace and concord."
And those are my wishes and prayers for all you, my blog friends, all around the world.
Such a lovely post in word and pictures, dear Terra.
