Thanksgiving

                                                     Thanksgiving 
                                                 
                                        Each year on Thanksgiving my family and I celerbrate Thanksgiving. We sometimes go to my grandmas or aunts to celabrate this thankful day. One thing I love about this holiday other than all the giving and thanking we do is that I get to spend this day with my family. We play games and eat the traditional turkey, yams, and more. As a family we usually play monopaly but it's now started to grow old and boring. Thanksgiving is really a blessed holiday that I will contiue to celabrate with my loving family. It is a tradition many of people celerate but I wouldn't want to spend this day without my family with me.

Earning

Earning
Once you earn it either feels good or bad but you know you have deserved it. I have earned both a lot good more than bad but what I’ve learned is that it’s not so bad. I have learned so much in my life but earning has helped me most. The grades, friends, and even family I have earned aren’t perfect but neither am I and that’s what helps me a lot too. You may not believe you deserve the things you get and sometimes you don’t but if you don’t brag or weep you will learn a lot. I remember one time I learned that earning comes in handing because I got a lot of earning in one week and it was all great!
          I was ten years old when I had finally reached my goal of earning all A’s. You see for years I had been earning almost all A’s but I would always get that one B+ that would make it all go down the drain. My mom I guess saw a lot in me so she and I made a deal that if I earned all A’s I would receive a 100 dollars! Of course I was so enthusiastic my mom made me ask my dad too so in total I would earn 200 dollars I couldn’t believe it. I had gotten so far I opened my report card and right there in front of my face I had seen all A’s and great comments from my teachers. For that one moment I was so excited and happy I would earn 200 dollars for myself. Questions roamed through me like What would I spend it on? Would I be able to spend it all? Would I even be able to spend it? How I wanted to know so I made my way to my mom. It turns out I couldn’t spend a dime or even a penny I had to put it away in a savings bank! I was so mad I didn’t even get anything until we had stopped to cancel my other bank account and I had gotten $5.50 I think. I was just so upset I didn’t even care but I thought about how my mom just wanted me to have money in case I had trouble when I got older. She gave me a hug and we drove home.
          Latter I had actually gotten to go to the store and buy stuff but my mom still paid for it and refused to let me buy it. Sometimes I wish school was that easy again sadly it isn’t and I’m ganna have to deal with it. I just wish I could have some of that money. Well unfortunately it’s for the best that I don’t have any so I could pitch in to buy something of my choose when I'm older. Well that was one example when I had felt so happy like I was actually doing something good. I felt as if I was floating on cloud nine, I felt proud, and most of all I felt satisfied with my work. Well what you earn is mostly what you deserve.
