Thanksgiving is a time to look back on all our blessings and to spend some time reflecting on the positive relationships, kind actions, blessings and the good in our lives. I hope that you get a chance to do this with your family and friends this weekend and even if you don’t celebrate Thanksgiving, it’s a good time to be grateful for all the positives in our lives. For your blog post this week, I’d like you to write a paragraph that explains WHAT you’re thankful for and WHY. It should be specific and written as a paragraph, with a topic sentence, body sentences, and a conclusion. Here’s mine:
With the smell of hot food cooking, vegetables being roasted, and a fire in the fireplace, I feel thankful. This has been another busy, crazy year but one in which I feel so lucky to have a new school, a new grade, and some great new challenges. I feel very thankful this year for my family, for Jacey, Vera, and Stella and for the ways in which they all contribute to make my life feel full, meaningful, crazy, and complete. It’s such a joy to come home to my family and having them supporting me makes me feel truly blessed. That’s why I’m thankful this holiday.
