I am grateful for many things, so it is very hard to choose just three. I'm not being selfish, but I am one of the things I am most grateful for is my life. My reason is because if I didn't have this life, I would not be able to witness the amazing things that are in it. Whether it's school, home, my family, my friends, I need a life to experience the joys and troubles that come with them all. The second thing I am grateful for is people. Every morning of my life, I wake up to the smiling faces of people. Thee important people in my life are my mom, dad, brother, teachers, and all my friends. I cannot imagine a life without them. The third thing I am grateful for are the everyday luxuries that I absolutely cannot live without. By this I mean food, water, a house, a school, air (source: last term science) and such. "We often focus on the big things...but if we lose the small things, everything else fails". Most often, I think about stuff like treats or candy or phones or something, but it never really occurred to me how important food, water, shelter, etc. are and how much it would affect my life if I lost them. Phones are WAY down the list. Of course, I'm grateful for lots of things, but those are the main to me. Okay, bye!

The second sentence messed up. It was supposed to be "I'm not being selfish, BUT ONE OF the things I am grateful for is my life." Okay, bye!

Also, it's supposed to be "THE important people in my life are..." not "THEE important people of my life are..." Whoa! I need to work on my editing skills.

I think Charlie Brown and snoopy are grateful because usually in the episodes/movies people are mean to them and make fun of them so maybe every body started being nice to them. I am grateful for my family because they love and care for me everyday. I am also thankful for my friends because they make me happy all the time and they make me feel like I can be myself when I am around them. The last thing that I am thankful for is my teachers because with out them I wouldn't be learning anything so I couldn't pay taxes or get a job when I'm older. That's it, bye.

I am very thankful for my family because they put a roof over my head and give me food and water, they also help me study for tests or with school work and I love them very much! Another thing I am thankful for is my dog Ozzy, I am thankful for him because usually when I come home from school I take him for a walk or play with him and if I didn't have him I would be bored and it would just be different around the house. The third thing I am thankful for is school, now I know that some people say that school is boring and pointless but if we all didn't have school we wouldn't even know how to read or what 1+1 is, that's why I'm thankful for school. Bye! See everyone Monday and I hope you get better Curlyfrie!

I am very grateful for my family because they all support me with all my decisions. All of them are so amazing and inspire me every single day. I couldn't ask for another loving family like the one I have right now. Oh my dog, Mila just turned one and I'm very to see her every morning greeting me half way up the stairs. Happy and healthy excited every morning gets me ready for my day. Education is another thing I'm grateful for because it gives me the needed information that will get me successful later in life. These are not all the things I'm truly grateful for. I continue to ask for less as I realize all I have is all I need. Be grateful for the little things because all you need is a little.

There is lots of things I am grateful for. If I have to chose the best 3 things I'll chose...First, I am grateful for my parents for loving me, giving courages to me, and helping me going through almost everything what I make some bussiness for. Next, I am thankful for all of my friends. If there was no friends, it means we have no person who understands me, and sharing ideas with it(Except for our family). Lastly, I am also thankful for the planet Earth. It gives us shelters, water, land, fire, and things like that where we can live without complaining, but we are now destroying our Earth..That's too bad for Earth AND all of creatures that are living at it..

I am grateful for my friends. I'm grateful for my friends because there always there for me and without them my life would probably be really boring. GEM makes me laugh a lot! When I'm with my friends I feel like I'm a part of something that's so awesome! Another thing I'm grateful for is a roof over my head. I'm grateful for that because a lot of people don't have a house or a bedroom but I was lucky enough to have a home with a great family. The last thing grateful for is my family. Even though my brother is annoying and my parents get mad at me sometimes I'll always love them because they'll always be there for me.

I am grateful for my family because they will always be there for me. I am also grateful for my dog, Buddy, he is so loving, kind, and cute. He always makes me happy. The last thing that I am grateful for are my friends, they always there to help me if I need it. Those are just three things that I am grateful for. See you all tomorrow.

I am great full for many things. One of them is family. I am great full for my family because they are amazing, kind, caring people who love me more than anything in the world. Without them I wouldn't be the person I am today. Another thing I am great full for is having a secure house with food and water. I am thankful for this because some children in the world barely have any food or water and don't have any house to live in. That's so sad. The final thing I am thankful for is education. I am very thankful for this because, this helps me learn and gives me an opportunity in life to do whatever I want when I grow up. I am thankful for much more but I think these are the main things. I hope you are thankful for these things, too.

I'm grateful for my family because they will always be there for me when I'm having a hard time. I'm grateful for my friends because they're like family, but usually around the same age, and you can also tell them your problems. They can also make you laugh and enjoy life. I'm also grateful for my cat (obviously), who will often make me smile when I'm feeling down.

I am very grateful of my friends and family because they're always there to cheer you up and make you happy. My family is important to me because they've been in my whole life and provide the things I need. Another thing I am grateful for is the home I live with a roof. Some families around the world don't have homes to live in which is why I work hard to be thankful for the life I have. The last thing I am grateful for is the education I have. My mom never finished school because she came from a poor family and she had to down this huge mountain to get to her school which is why I am grateful for the schools nearby my house and the teachers that help us student learn. See you all tomorrow. :)

I am grateful for my parents because they are the ones that do almost everything for me such as pay for thing like food, entertainment, etc. They also cheer me up if I am bored. I am also grateful for my friends because if I did not have they them I would be bored when I`m at school, outside, the park. The last thing I am grateful for is my electronics because they keep me entertained and in contact with my friends and family. See you all tomorrow! :D

I'm grateful for my family because they help me through tough times and they love me. If I didn't have them I wouldn't be doing half the stuff I do now. They really support me with my dancing and many other stuff I do. I am also thankful for life because if I didn't have a life I would not be experiencing the things I do now like I would not be able to witness dancing, going to school, and many more things like exploring the world. I'm also grateful for dance because if I didn't have it I don't know how I would handle my emotions. When I'm in a bad mood or I'm having a bad day I go to my dance studio and I just never want to stop dancing cause I can express how I'm feeling so well. If I didn't have dance I would not be here today. One more thing I'm grateful for the roof over my head, if I didn't have a roof I would be sleeping outside and not have any cover over me. Just like food I'm grateful that I can eat everyday because people in Africa or anywhere can't eat everyday, and I'm really thankful that I can eat. This is really random but when I'm older I want to work with kids and go and feed them food or spend a day with homeless people and buy them things. I think if I did that one day people will be really appreciative. We'll see you tomorrow!

One thing I'm grateful for is my parents. They give me a roof over my head, and satisfy my basic needs by providing me with food and water. Another thing I'm grateful is my 2 dogs. They can be little rascals at times but they are fun to be around. The last thing I'm grateful for are my friends, Because they support me and have my back.
