A Thankful Bunch of Kids!

As we were getting ready to leave for the Thanksgiving Holiday, I asked the kids what they were thankful for. I think their answers are really sweet--clearly their families hold a special place in their hearts! I promise, I did not force them to give those answers! They did it completely on their own. I hope you enjoy their responses as much as I did!
