I am thankful

For my natural hair color
That professor is a gender neutral pronoun in English
That my parents made sure I always had a car when I needed one
For the Computer Art classes offered at my high school
For hair elastics

    I LOVE hair elastics. Which reminds me. I need to buy more. They always seem to disappear so fast!

    I love that you wrote a post titled “I am thankful” on the day my family happened to be celebrating early Thanksgiving. We all wrote down what we were thankful for, put it in a little ceramic turkey, and passed the turkey around and took turns reading random ones throughout dinner. I was thankful for six things:
    1. Fun and supportive parents
    2. That it is FINALLY basketball season again
    3. Sisterly advice
    4. That I have a job next summer
    5. My fiance (who takes care of me when I drink too much on Halloween)
    6. Friends who make me laugh

    ^Of which, you are one!

    Girls, put on sunglasses because you make me smile so big it might blind you. It’s practically as important to me to be thankful for little things like hair elastics as it is to be thankful for important, major things like people—including my delightful friends.
