I am thankful for ten reasons.

Third, I am thankful for my family.
Fourth, I am thankful for being alive.
Fifth, I am thankful for science.
Sixth, I am thankful for the fireman.
Seventh, I am thankful that my house was not in the fires.
Eighth, I am thankful for God.
Nineth, I am thankful for the trees.
Tenth, I am thankful for animals.
Thankful I am for my family.
A wish of mine is that there is peace in the world.
Someday I hope to see Paris, France.
The world would be a better place if people were nicer.
We should all work together to make the world a better place.
My heart is filled with joy when I see people happy.
Happiness to me is seeing my mom happy.
I am grateful to have a nice family.
What I really appreciate is friends.
My family is what I greatly love.
Thanksgiving Day means love.

You can shed tears that she is gone, or you can smile because she has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that she’ll come back, or you can open your eyes and see all that she has left.
Your heart can be empty because you can’t see her, or you can be full of the love you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember her and only that she’s gone,
Or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.
You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back,
Or you can do what she’d want, smile, open your eyes, love, and go on
