Andy Appanna What are you thankful for? Are you thankful for anything? Everybody is thankful for something. I am thankful for my family and friends. I’m thankful for my family because they care for me, they give me shelter and they protect me. Many children in the world don’t have a family to shelter or care for them. I’m thankful for my friends because they are always there for me and they educate me with things I hadn’t known. I’m also thankful for my education because kids in the world do not have enough education to get to college and have a great and intelligent adult life.
