Thanksgiving

           What is thanksgiving? Its not just a holiday where you meet other family members and not go to school but it is the holiday to thank our friends and family for what they have done to us. Well do you know the history behind thanksgiving? It all starter like this. The pilgrims shared their crops with the Native Americans because the colonist taught them to hunt and crop vegetables. They grew their crops and shared the food with them. They had a big feast. Without the help from the colonist, most of the Pilgrims wouldn't have survived the harsh winter. When the dinner table is filled with scrumptious foods like turkey, mashed patatos and many more it all brings back the history of the first thanksgiving and how the pilgrims were being thankful to the colonists.

What am I thankful for?

There are too many things to be thankful for. Family are like friends and that is what I'm thankful for. I’m thankful for my dad because he is always there for me and he is a extremely funny person. I’m thankful for my mom because she is an helpful person and she encourages me to do better. Lastly I’m thankful for my grandparents because they are there always there whenever my parents aren't home. I'm extremely thankful for the people who are there for me and cheer me on.
