Thankful for much!

Happy November!!!

Our special day this month is……..THANKSGIVING!!!!!

At the first Thanksgiving, the pilgrims and the native Americans came together to celebrate the harvest. What would make someone happier than getting together with family and friends to eat a feast?!!!!

Now, I know what you might be thinking, "How does something at the end of the month help me be happy at the beginning of the month?" Well, here are some reasons.

1. Having something to look forward to is always helpful to being happy!

2. More time to plan. To help yourself think more about happy things, consider planning something extra special for Thanksgiving this year. You could make decorations, or think of an extra special dish to make, or plan to make a dish only one person in your family likes that you would not normally have so you can surprise the person who loves it!

3. Each evening leading up to Thanksgiving, you can think of one thing you are thankful for, so that you have a long list when the big day comes! And it doesn’t have to be something serious. It can be something goofy like being thankful for instant coffee or fuzzy slippers!

4. Here is a happy rhyme for November and Thanksgiving:

Whether it is pumpkin pie or apple tart,

it does not matter what you eat.

What matters is love and thankfulness in your heart,

as you enjoy your tasty treat!

I have something very special to be thankful for this Thanksgiving: all of you who read this blog!!!!!!!!!! Because of you and this blog, I am a Gold Award Girl Scout!!!!!

I hope you have a wonderful November and a happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Birthday to everyone with a birthday in November!!!!

Smiles!! and Hugs!!!
