This Thanksgiving I am very thankful for my family. This Thanksgiving I am spending the weekend with my mom’s family in Saint Louis. When I think about my family I am thankful because of how lucky I am to have them all still. My grand-father was a full colonel in the Vietnam War so for him to have survived is something that I am very thankful for. Many people that had family in the Vietnam War were not as lucky as I am. I am also thankful for my grand-mother. She had a heart attack a few years ago and I cannot imagine my life without her. She helped me and is still helping me to be the best that I can be and has always supported me in everything that I do. I am also thankful because of my aunt. A few years ago she had breast cancer and after that she lost her job. However she fought through and has since gotten married and has an even better job than before. Finally I am thankful for my parents. They do so much work for me and my siblings to be happy. My dad drives my sister and I to school on the way to work and after school my mom drives all four of us out to Schaumberg for soccer practice. When I look at my family I see how lucky I am and it makes me very thankful.
