Thanksgiving Early Blog
Instead of celebrating
Thanksgiving just one day out of the year, we should celebrate it every
day! Because there is always
something to be thankful for!
Since you are reading my
blog right now, you have to be reading it on some kind of device. You are able
to read it, so you probably have the ability to learn letters and sounds. You
are living and breathing air. You are reading, breathing,
understanding, thinking, living…there are 5 things to be
thankful for already! :) I’m sure we could find
a million more things that we are thankful for if we just take a few minutes to
think and reflect.
Here are some of the
things that I am thankful for:
1.
My Family - - They are the absolute
BEST!

Friends - - They support me in all I
do.

is amazing!
