Happy Thanksgiving!

It’s Thanksgiving weekend!  I hope you and yours are in the midst of a great weekend of community and togetherness.

I was happy to spend Thanksgiving morning with the wonderful group of students I teach.  We made a Thanksgiving Tree on our classroom wall, and I thought I’d share some the things they are thankful for.  I love their words!

I am thankful for cats because they are cute.

I am thankful for colors because they make other people happy.

I am thankful for God because He gave us life and He has the most power.

I am thankful for my baby brother because he keeps me company.

I am thankful for animals because they give us food.

I am thankful for water because it helps others breathe better.

I am thankful for birds because I love watching them.

I am thankful for fruits because they help you heal.    

I am thankful for Jesus because He died on the cross.

I am thankful for snakes because they protect sometimes.

After a shortened school day, I headed to a huge gathering (40+ people!) and ate some good food with even better company.  We even had pecan pie!  Amazing.

Missing you all back home.  Sending love from the land of a thousand hills!
