  3. 1. I am thankful for people who see the positive side of everything.
    "Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful."
    ~Buddha
    2. I am thankful I was blessed with four daughters.
    "The children have been a wonderful gift to me, and I'm thankful to have once again seen our world through their eyes. They restore my faith in the family's future.
    ~Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis
    3. I am thankful for my family, my friends, and my students.

  4. Hey Tomato--thanks for the shout out, and you'll be happy to know that my dear husband got the first Lost DVD on Netflix for me. :-)

    So, things I'm thankful for:
    1. Modern plumbing
    2. My utterly amazing, wonderful family including my miraculous children, Husband, family of origin, extended family, in-laws (yes, I do indeed love my in-laws!) and all those who have become family because I love them so much.
    3. A job I adore, along with teachers I am proud to call dear friends (including the fantastic Mrs. M!) And students like Tomato who make it worthwhile.
    4. Friends
    5. Being part a country that has so many freedoms that we often don't know how good we have it--being thankful reminds me not to take it for granted.
