    I am thankful for many things, especially for my life. I am thankful for my family who supports me in all ways, my friends whenever I need them, the food on my table for every meal, the roof over my head, the education I am receiving, my opportunities for the future, I could go on forever. If I didn’t have the things that I am thankful for, I wouldn’t be the same person I am today. The things that I am thankful for have created my character and are helping building it up. I have been blessed with a great life, where I can be thankful for every bit of it.

    I am most thankful for my family and friends. They help keep me going when I’m down, I know they will always be there for me, I can trust them, and I love them all. If my family and friends were taken away from me, I wouldn’t be the same Anne. My family has taught me almost everything I know. My friends have helped me be the person I am. I am so grateful for my friends and family.

    I am most thankful for my family. I am most thankful for my family because without them I would not be able to live without them. My mom loves me uncondicionally. My dad takes care of me when I'm sick, and helps me with my homework. My sister helps me when I have problems with school and gymnastics. If I lost them I just dont know what I would do. Just imagine loosing your family, you would probobly be forced to go live with your relitives or a friend or even with a family you dont know. All I know is my family is the thing I'm most thankfu; for is my family and i so not plan on loosing them anytime soon.

    I am most greatful for my parents because, even if they get mad at me at times they will always love me. My parents are important to me because they are always there for me no matter what happens. If I didn't have my mom I wouldn't know how to make art because, art comes from my mom's side of my family. I would also not have our ranch that came from my dad's side of the family. This is why my parents are so important to me.

    I think the thing most important to me is God, because he has provided everything I have. If he were taken away from me, I would have nothing at all, sending into total despair, because when you have nothing, it is very hard to get something needed.

    I am thankful for so many things, but I am most thankful for my family. They are always there for me when I'm sad, they make me laugh ALL the time, and, most importantly, they love me. If I didn't have my family's love, I don't think I could survive. I wouldn't be able to support myself, since I'm still a kid. I wouldn't be the same person I am today, nor would I have the knowledge that I have now. I would be one thing to never have any family to love you, but it would be so much worse for them to be taken away. I would cry for them every day. If my family was taken away, I would be DEVASTED for the rest of my life.

    There are so many things in life to be thankful for, but most of all I'm thankful for my family. They're always supporting me through everything I do. Without their support, life would be terrible. Sometimes you only need your family's encouragement to do the things you've never done before. I don't think I could be where I am today without my family. I'm so lucky to have my mom's lap to cry on, my dad's shoulder to lean on, and of course my brother's sense of humor that can lighten up the worst days of my life.

    I am most thankful for my family. I dont know what i would do without them. My mom makes me dinner and drives me to dance every night. My dad always helps with my homework when i need it. My sister is always there so I always have someone to play with. She always makes me laugh. If i didnt have my family it would be terrible. Without there love and support i wouldnt be the same person. I would have a homemade dinner waiting for me when i got home from dance every night. I wouldnt have anyone to make me laugh when i was sad. I really am thankful for my family.

    I am most thankful for my family. My little brother is totally crazy and fun. My sister acts like a know it all, big shot told you so boss of the world. My mom is the same way though is usually right. My puppy pees and poops on everything including my books. My dad is really strong and helps put up decorations. If my family was taken away from me I would be all sad and mad which is not cool.

    There are many things I am thankful for. The greatest friends, a wonderful school, the hot-dog… But I would say that I am most thankful for having the family I have. They are always there to hold my hand as I walk the steps of life. When I’m feeling down, they comfort me. When I do well, they encourage me.
    If my family was taken away, I would be devastated. My family is the pillar of my life. Without them, I wouldn’t be where I am today.

    The most important thing to be thankful for through my eyes, is my family and the people around me. I would never have been where I stand right now if it weren't for my parents. My aunts and uncles are always supporting me, and even when they're not there, I always know they are thinking about me. Because in life, everybody needs encouragement and confidence, and that's what your family id there for.

    I am most thankful for a chance at life and love and laughter and everything else that comes in that package. I am thankful for the past, the present, and the future that will come. Although I am glad to have the power to choose the path I believe is right, I am glad to leave my fragile life in the hands of fate at the moment. I have a loving family and a right to freedom. I send my thanks to the ones who helped provide it. I make a special promise to myself to never let any one take away the things I hold dear to me. Without my freedom, I would not be able to do as I please with my life. There isn't any way anyone can take away my past, present, or future and I suppose my life is safe too, but I can not live without the power to make choices in my life, my freedom, or my family. God bless America and let us remain free.

    I am most thankful for my family because they made me who I am. We do alot of things together, and I enjoy being around them. My littlest brother is so rude, my little sister ALWAYS takes my thingS, and my other younger brother acts like a butt, but I still love them. I like to hang out with my mom and dad because they are cool and they give me good advice.

    The things that I am most thankful for are my family and friends. My family support me in everything I try to do and they encourage me to keep trudging on through life. They give me what I need and are there when I need them. My friends are also a great part of my life. They help me through everything when I am down. Even when the water is high and I'm about to go under they are still there with an outstretched arm ready to pull me up. My friends are more like a family to me. If my friends and family were taken away my life would crumble to pieces. My friends and family are my character, my inner-core... well my everything.

    I am most thankful for my family and Jesus. My family are always there supporting me through thick and thin. When I come across a pothole in my life they help guide me around it. If they were taken away from me my life would be in ruins. I wouldn’t know what to do, and I would be lost without any direction. I am thankful for Jesus because he came here and died on a cross for us, for me. He is always there in my heart guiding me through daily life. If I have any hardships in my life he is with me. He is always the beacon of hope to guide me through those dreary days where it seems there is no end. If he was taken away from me my life will always be dreary there will be emptiness and no light.

    I am most thankful for the talent that I have. If it was taking away I would be sad.

    Throughout my life I have realized that I am most thankful for all my good influences. Some of my good influences are my family, friends, and teachers. I now realize how fortunate I am to have never been involved with a bad influence. Sure very few kids get involved with drugs and stuff but that doesn't mean it can't happen. If I were involved with a bad influence I don't think I would succeeding like I am or have any of my great friends.

    I am most thankful for my family and friends. My family always cares for me, even if my brother is trying to control me, and they will always watch out for me, and support my decisions(well, the smart ones anyways). They come to all of my sports events, bring me to friends houses, make me food, and love me.
    I also care about my friends, too. They're always there for me, through every fight, or break up. When I start to freak about a pop quiz in spanish, I know they'll help me study, or clearly let me know I'm not the only one freaking out.
    In the end though, I know that my friends and family will always care for me and support me.

    There many things to be thankful for. I am thankful for my parents, school, and my friends. If these were taken away from me, I don’t think that it’ll be a great life for me and everyone else. I’m very thankful for my friends so that I can talk to them, play with them, and also help them whenever they need my help or need someone to talk too. I’m also very thankful for my parents because they help me with everything in my life. My parents are very important to me because they help me get a good education, like school, and also help me whenever I need them. I’m very thankful for them because they are always fun to play with, especially in parks or whenever my family goes on vacations. Even though they get mad at me, I know that they always will love me and care for me. I am also thankful for my parents because they can help me talk Chinese and sometimes whenever I want say something in Chinese to my grandparents and it was somewhat wrong, my parents know that they can always help me because they know that I don’t say it that well. I am thankful for school because without it, I won’t have the benefit to go to a good college because I know that it comes from the good grades, at school. Without it, people would have a bad education and probably have to live on streets. I think everyone should go to school because everyone, like your parents or your teachers has to go to school in order to get enough education for you and everyone else. I also think that people including me have to choose if you want to go to school or not, because it’s your decisions’ not anyone else’s to yet you be whatever you want to be in the future.

    There are many things that I am thankful for, but the one I am most thankful for is family. My family has always been one of the most important things in my life. For providing me with food, love and shelter. They are also there for encouraging me in tough times and helping me learn my lessons in life. I can’t imagine a life without family. It would be like living life without a reason, a purpose.
