10 Things I’m Thankful For
1st hr.
Erin Snyder
My Family: I am thankful for a family who takes care of me and is always there when I need them. My brothers are always there to make me laugh when I’m feeling down. My mom is always there to drive me around and to listen when I need someone to complain to. She can always make me feel better when I’m not in a good mood. I am also thankful for my dad who provides for me and my family and is always there to joke around with.
My Friends: I am thankful for my friends who are always there for me when I have no where else to go. My friends can always make me feel better when my life seems too hard to handle. Whether it’s my friend Katy who will listen to me complain into the middle of the night when I come over at ten thirty and wake her up because I had a bad night at dance, or it’s any of my other friends who are always there to make me feel happy and laugh.
My house: I’m thankful for having a house and a bed to sleep in every night, because I know a lot of people are less fortunate than me and don’t have a place to sleep every night.
My clothes: I’m thankful for having clean clothes to wear every day and never having to worry about getting too cold during the winter.
5. Dance: I am thankful for dance because of all the friends I have there and all of the life lessons I learn there. Dance helps me learn that I can’t always have everything I want in life and there is always going to be someone better than me at things in life, and I have to learn to do my best and showcase my strengths and work at what I am not as good at.
Ms. Joanne: I am thankful for my dance teacher, Ms Joanne. Ms. Joanne is like my second mom. She always understands and is always there for me to talk to, even if it has nothing to do with dance. Ms. Joanne is always ready to make me laugh and to make sure I have fun at dance. She is always ready to give out hugs when needed, and she’s always prepared with a shoulder to cry on when you’re having a bad day.
Food: I’m thankful that my house is always full of food, and that I can be sure that I’m never going to go hungry. I know that I will always have food to eat even if it isn’t always what I want to eat.
Music: I am thankful for music. Listening to a good song can always cheer me up or just make me laugh. I’m thankful for my iPod that’s full of good songs that I can listen to when driving in the car or riding on the bus.
Skip: I’m thankful for my dog skip. I’ve had my dog for almost nine years now and he’s always been my true best friend. He’s always ready to play or go for a walk when I want to.
Summer: I am thankful for summer. Summer is my favorite season when I get to see all my family and cousins when we go on a huge camping trip. Summer is also when I get to see all my best friends from camp who I get to see once a year. I am thankful for the warm weather that summer brings, and no school.
