Gobble, gobble!

It is most frigid outside, we are getting ready to head out on the roads, I am getting very hungry, and my cat, Zephyr, is curled up on the couch not giving a darn about whether or not he gets real cranberries on his turkey dinner because he prefers ham, anyway.

So, the obligatory question: What are you thankful for?

Me, I am thankful for my family, my friends, and for the kids that I teach every year. Especially the kids that come into my life and leave very big footprints on my heart. Kids who, well, let’s put it this way: If I had kids, I would want my kids to be a lot like you people. You make my day when I see you in the halls, and you make me smile when I read what you are thinking in your comments.

For that, and for you, I am very thankful. From the bottom of my heart.

Happy Thanksgiving, one and all!

I am thankful for…(in no particular order)

my family
my two dogs (you gotta love them!)
school (without it I wouldn’t be this smart and would’ve never met my friends, favorite teachers, and many more people)
my friends
Mr. Madden!! (I can’t leave you out!!)
books (especially Twilight)
my bed (some people don’t have them…and mine is exceptionally cozy!)
music! (what would life be like without it?!)
electricity
…and my alarm clock

I know there’s a lot more things that I’m thankful for…but I don’t want to name them all. My list would get WAY too big.
