Little ones and thankfulness!

Last year I skipped teaching my kids about Thanksgiving.  I wasn't planning on even celebrating Thanksgiving because I was due to have Weston right before the holiday...he came a week late...so we ended up celebrating the holiday (I was extremely grouchy and getting really impatient)...we spent the evening walking the halls of a vacant hospital...only to be sent home...(the grouchiness and impatience...continued).   Anyways, my creativity was really low during the month...so this year I took advantage of the month of November to cover with the kids the history of Thanksgiving and how it became a holiday.  Almost every day that we did school the kids wrote on a leaf what they are thankful for.  They came up with these things all on their own...pretty proud of them...sorry if you are not on the list...you will have to take the matter up with the kiddos:)
