For This I Am Thankful

As I am sitting here, I am wearing (no lie) a black Power Rangers mask because my 3-year-old wants me to.  My 5-year-old is trying so hard to read a book on his own and is painstakingly sounding out each word as he reads.  I just corrected thirty short stories written by freshmen and was blown away by many of them; I couldn’t help commenting, “I’m so proud of you!” on many of the rubrics that will be handed back to them on Monday.  And so I am thankful.  I am thankful not only for my own children, but for the kids at school whom I get to watch grow.  I experience the same pride with those kids that I experience with my own kids at home.  Aside from having better hair and a whole lot more money, I guess I really have everything for which I need to be thankful this year.  Happy Thanksgiving!
