Thanksgiving

Next Thursday is Thanksgiving.  A time to spend with your love ones, eating turkey, and being grateful for what you have.  I'm going to list the things I'm grateful for and why.

I'm grateful for my family.  My family has always been their for me and they always will be there.  They've helped me get through school and supported everything I did.  They helped me when I need them the most.  They also raised me to be a good person and showed me the right ways.  I love them very much.

I'm grateful for my friends.  They really helped me through my rough patches when I could not go to my family for things.  They make me laugh and my life that much brighter.

I'm grateful for my job and the people I work with.  I love my job at the center.  I love working with the kids, although they can be a little crazy at times lol   I love the fact that I'm making a difference in their lives.  I feel like I'm making a difference.  I can look back at the end of the day, and feel that I have accomplished something.  I love the staff (well most of them lol)  I work with wonderful people who are helpful and supporting.

I'm grateful for my boyfriend.  I love him so much; though sometimes we do drive each other up a wall lol.  He has always been there even before we started dating.  He has been a good friend of mine, and now a wonderful boyfriend.  He is the shoulder I cry on when I'm feeling down.  He makes me laugh and supported everything I do!  He makes me so happy and I'm very grateful for him!

I'm grateful for laughter.  I love to laugh and I'm grateful for the things that make me laugh and smile! It would be horrible if I couldn't smile and laugh.  So I'm going to smile and laugh as much as I can!

I'm grateful for music.  I love music!  It brings me so much joy.  It relaxes me, or makes me want to dance and sing!  It makes my life so much fun to have it!  It colors the world!

I'm grateful for skype, phones, and computers.  I'm grateful that we live in a time that we can call, send emails, and video chat.  It makes going through a long distance relationship a little bit easier!  I'm glad that we have more than one way to keep in touch.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!  Remember for the things and people in your life and remember not everyone is lucky to have what you have!
