Happy Thanksgiving - November 20th Edition
Being Thankful
If you've recently stopped by our school, then you probably have noticed students' "thankful" artwork. You know the type - construction paper turkeys with feathers and a "I'm thankful for …." As a parent, I love these keepsakes. They remind me of the time my son was thankful for Legos, karate, and his sister. (Those rare moments when siblings appreciate each other!)
If I made a turkey - this is what mine would say … "I am thankful for my family. I am thankful for every "Hi, Mrs. Carter." that I hear from students in the hallway. I am thankful for the many parents who wave hello in the morning in the car rider line. I am thankful for every teacher whose car is in Gayman parking lot at 7:00AM, long before our students arrive. And I am most thankful for our small, family school where we care deeply."
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
