a thankful heart is a happy heart

In art class, my students are writing lists of what they are thankful for. (Does this relate to blending colors? The concept of a horizon line? Art history? I don't think so, but at least I get a half hour break from "Miss Hatcher, he's looking at me and I told him to stop and he won't!")

Jeremiah has apparently not completed this assignment to the art teacher's satisfaction, so she tells him, "You need to write more; you have only one thing on your list."

His response: "But, I'm only thankful for Jesus!"

She replies, "You can be thankful for other things too."

And so, defeated, he concedes, "Okay... I'm thankful for everything."

Happy Thanksgiving!
