I am grateful for my family because I wouldn’t be alive if my mom didn’t have me and my loving family that always makes me feel comfortable and happy. I am grateful for food and water. I am grateful for these things because I know that some people in the world aren’t able to drink clean water and eat good food. I am also grateful to have a roof over my head and that also includes a nice warm bed and a place to live because some people aren’t as fortunate as me.

~ Georgia, 2nd grade

I am thankful for my family. Now this may seem simple, but they do so much for me and sometimes their simplest actions are the best. I am thankful for my mom because she cooks, cleans, drives me around, deals with me and my brother 😉 and is an all around great person. She takes me to get my nails done and we have mother daughter bonding time. She deals with my cats peeing on beds and doesn’t get too mad at them because she knows how much I love them. She makes me lunch every day although sometime she complains and about how I, as a teenager, should make my own lunch. She is such a big part of my life. I am also thankful for my dad. He has taught me so much, from sports to hard work to math. He has worked so hard for many years, and continues to do so, to make sure our family can live how we do. I appreciate him every day, and he is a great part of my life. I have memories of him throwing the football with me on the sidelines of my brother’s flag football games. Without him I wouldn’t be where I am now. I am also thankful for my twin brother. Because despite him being annoying at times (like any brother), he looks out for me and we help each other whenever we can. Because we are twins I think we are closer than most siblings, and we understand each other. We help each other with homework and study together. I love my family and I am very thankful to have them in my life.

I am grateful for a lot of things. There’s so many things to be thankful for, but I’ll just name a few. My parents, my house, and the wonderful (sometimes not so wonderful) food that my parents make for me every night are some of the things in which I am thankful for. Getting well fed and a roof over my head is not something everyone may have, so I am very grateful to have those things.
