Thankful

On the Tuesday before our break,  I asked you to write down 5 things you were thankful for and why. You had the chance to share a few, but what were your others? Below I've listed a few of mine, what are yours??

• My family. My parents have always been supportive and always tried to challenge me. They have helped me grow into the person I am today. My brother and sister are very entertaining and fascinating people. I am truly thankful to have them in my life.
• Teaching. Teaching allows me to help others grow, it allows me share my interests, and help develop interests in children. I am truly grateful to be a teacher (especially thankful to be at this school, with these amazing teachers, and with these fabulous children). 
• My health. I have a working body. I'm petrified of needles and hospitals, and I am VERY thankful that I have never known any true sickness. My body works just fine, although I may not be in the best shape ever, I can run and I can swim. I am thankful for this!
• Books. I love to read. LOVE. I love to be pulled into a story and I am thankful that there are so many talented writers who are always trying to create new and exciting stories. 
• Having enough. This may sound silly, but their are many people that do not have enough to get by. I am truly thankful that I have never know the pain of being without a home, or without food. I may not have enough for elaborate vacations or all the shoes I want, but I have always had enough.
