1. I am thankful for a job where I can love and teach kids. A job that helps me grow and challenges me to become a better teacher, and keep my eyes fixed on Jesus.
2. I am thankful for supportive coworkers who encourage me and make me laugh on a daily basis. I would not be able to survive without that.
3. I am thankful for the opportunity to volunteer these past 10 months with some precious kids every Wednesday. I love seeing the joy on their faces when they walk through the door. It has been an amazing experience, being able to teach these kids about Jesus and being a fun place of escape for an hour every week. I am so sad I'll have to stop in January until summer, and know that I'll be ecstatic when I come back.
4. I am thankful for Lauren and Amy. They're the best friends I could have ever asked for. They call me out on my crap and laugh at most of my jokes (even when they're not funny...). I can count on them to give advice when I need it, and I'm thankful for the times where we can all just kind of sit in comfortable silence.
5. I am thankful for the mentors I've had throughout the year. Mentors for both my professional life and my spiritual life. These people have taught me the importance of hard work, dedication, passion, and faith. With their help I've been able to trudge through so much. I can see how much I've changed in just a short amount of time, and that is something I will always be grateful for.
6. I am thankful for my dishwasher. This may sound trivial, but Y'ALL. DON'T. EVEN. KNOW.
DON'T. EVEN. KNOW.
I'm also thankful for all of you, who still read my ramblings and don't think I'm crazy.
Happy Thanksgiving everybody!
