10 Things Teachers Everywhere Are Thankful For

Well, it's that time of the year when we get together with the family for the big turkey dinner to celebrate the teacher-lifesaver of November that we call Thanksgiving. Today we acknowledge all the things that we're thankful for in our lives. Here's what teachers have to be thankful for. Happy Thanksgiving!
1. For the kids. Yes, even though they drive us crazy, we're grateful for the opportunity to make a difference in their lives, to shape their minds, and do our part for the future of humanity.

5. For laughter. The only way to get through the madness is to not take it all so seriously, and remember to always keep a sense of humor!

6. For the magic bean we call coffee... And tea, diet coke, Dr. Pepper, Red Bull - all those stimulants for waking us up each morning and helping us make it past 3rd period!

7. For past students who come back to see us, just to say hi or thanks, for the impact we had in their young lives. They're the reminder why we do what we do, in lieu of all the misery that comes with the job!
