Thanksgiving

It is the third week in November and we all know what that means. This is the time when your mom and dad start worrying about cooking that turkey, and who gets to wash the truckloads of dishes after the meal. It is the time when stores advertize their After-Thanksgiving-Day Sale. And it is the time where we lean back in our chairs pat our stomachs and start looking for that first snowfall of the year.

Thanksgiving is a holiday that is unique to America. Unique as in the only one of its kind. America is the only nation in the world that has a holiday designed to give thanks to God. America is also the only country in the world founded as a Christian Nation. You might laugh at that when you think of all the stuff happening in your school or on the news. But if you look around at the other countries in the world you can count your blessings that you live in America the Great.

P.S. It is also the only country in the world that plays football on Thanksgiving. Go Cowboys!
