Thursday's Five Things - 8/6/09

Five things I'm thankful for and that I love:

• I love the sight of

A group of adults having a blast
while playing Wii Bowling.

Even getting competitive too!

• I love the sound of

A Classic Rock song on the radio, reminding me of childhood.
Believe it or not, I grew up listening to music from the 60's and 70's.


• I love the feel of

Getting the house clean for company.


• I love the taste of

Peanut butter and blackberry jam sandwiches.

• I love the smell of

Homemade french fries cooking on the stove.

What did you see today that you're thankful for?

There's Still Time To Help

Do you remember your summer vacations as a kid? I can! We played outside all day, making a homemade Slip-n-Slide, eating as many popsicles as our moms would let us, riding bikes, rollerskating, and playing at a friend's house. Did you ever go to a water park? How about visiting the zoo? Each one cost money, and thankfully our parents were able to pay so we could do those things.

How about the children who can't do those things? What if they don't have enough money? Don't you think they should be able to still have a fun summer?

I say yes, of course they should!

You can still help provide free summer vacations to children in NYC through The Fresh Air Fund.

This made me smile.
