Be Thankful...........

This is something my Dad got from somewhere and hung it up in our school room so, I thought I might share it with you.

"Be thankful...... for the mess to clean after a party because it means you have been surrounded by friends."

"Be thankful....... for the clothes you wear that fit a little to snug because it means you have enough to eat"

"Be thankful........ for the lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning, gutters that need fixing because it means you have a home."

"Be thankful....... for the spot you find at the end of the parking lot because it means you are able to walk."

"Be thankful........ for the piles of laundry and ironing because it means your loved ones are close by."

"Be thankful........ for the alarm that goes off in the early morning hour because it means that you are alive."

I you are a kid like me make your own (because most of these refer to adults) like this one.....

Be thankful....... for the clothes that disappear from your closet because you know your sister (brother doesnt fit this one that well) is having fun somewhere and she feels beautiful.

Make your own and write them on the comments.

Be thankful.... for the...............................because it means...........................
