I'm Thankful...

[yonkyu]

Day Four:
I'm Thankful for my Job. I know I'm very lucky to have a job and doing what I love the most. I love spending my time with young children at the age of toddlers (15 months to 2 years 9 months of age). Watching their face light up every day and hearing them laugh, I know that I made a difference to the young children in my class. Everyday I get a warm greeting and a hug on a regular basis and it brings a smile to my face. I bring hope, love, and trust into these children's lives and they bring the same to me in my life. I love being a teacher and I always learn something from them all the time.

Day Five:
I'm Thankful for animals. I currently have a fish and I enjoy the peace and calming nature it brings to my demeanor. It makes me remember my cat that passed away when I was 18 - that was 13 years ago. I love all kinds of animals and I'm honored that my friends trust me to take care of their beloved furry friends when needed. My friend has two cats and a dog and they are like my adoptive pets. It brings joy and happiness into my life to have that connection with an animal again. I miss having my own, but being able to take care of someone else's pet!!!

Day Six:
I'm Thankful for having an education. I wish that every child and adult had the opportunity to receive an education. There are people out in this world that don't even get the choice or chance to have an education. I'm honored to know how to read, write, think for myself, and develop skills that help me be successful in this world.
