Mrs. Fuhrmann: I too, just like many of my students, am thankful for many things. I am grateful for family and friends like many of my students. But, as an adult, I realize that there are many things to be grateful for that a child many not understand. I am grateful for each day… because I feel it is a gift, the kindness of strangers… because they create a feeling of unexpected thoughtfulness in our world, the challenges in life… because they are what have made us who we are today and without them we would not push ourselves, and watching children laugh, grow, and dream… because they help keep things in perspective, when the daunting feelings of being an adult with many responsibilities can be overwhelming. Here are just a few, in a long list of many, things I am thankful for. What are you most thankful for?
