Thanksgiving is already here; who's thankful?

Boy does time fly! I can remember back in August getting my 2 littles ready for new schools and getting my older son ready to return to college. By October my daughter had new eyeglasses and made the Principal's List. I found out my baby boy was the most laziest child on earth. Who did not want to read or write. Put it like this, he was flunking the 3rd grade. Not because he couldn't do the work. He just decided he wasn't gonna do a damn thing in class, and better yet, he was pretending he had done tons of work. Yeah that's right lying about completing assignments given to him from his teacher. Granted his teacher ain't too hip on checking if kids are doing what they are suppose to do while under his watch. I don't mean to sound sexist, but there is something about having a female teacher. I believe it's a sixth sense or something. They just know when a kid ain't doing what he/she is suppose to do. By November I am exhausted with helping him with his homework and making sure he stays on top of things. Sometimes this takes hours and hours. I am constantly saying "honey, you have done your work please turn it in". "Why is it still in your folder?". And the beat goes on to the same ole song, day in day out. They are on holiday break now. Maybe I can get some housecleaning out of them. Shucks they ain't doing nothing else. And lastly the only game I go to of the Tennessee Titans and they lose. So much for going undefeated. They needed this lost so they can put things into perspective. And get off their high horse.
Now with all thats said and done. I AM truly thankful for my kids. I wouldn't trade them for nothing in the world. I am also thankful to have such a caring and devoted husband, who keeps me laughing. A true family man. I am thankful to have a wonderful, supportive family. From my 2 mom's, sister and on down. I am thankful for my job and the unit I work on. You couldn't ask for a better, caring, more supportive group of peeps. Very different from were I came from. THEY make you feel welcome. That's all for now, so Happy Thanksgiving to all!!!!!
