  3. I'm thankful for parents who want their children to excel!
  4. I'm thankful for my family and friends that support me!
  5. I'm thankful to be in a school where we support each other as family!
  6. I'm thankful for supportive administration at the school and district level!
  7. I'm thankful that I'm a National Board Certified Teacher!

I AM thankful for my job as I was on the chopping block last spring! I can't imagine life without the joy, laughter, and amazement of kindergarten children! They are the best! imafarmgirl
