Week 3: More than I can imagine

This week is Thanksgiving and boy do I have a LOT to be thankful for. At the week 3 of my fund raising expedition I have raised $603.06  So I would like to thank my Big Momma who pushed my mom into letting me go, Aunt Andrea who got me started on my journey, my mom for helping me fund raise and pushing me when I've been turned down, and Mrs. Acton an architect who donated $250. I have never held $603.06 dollars in my hand before tonight and knowing that its going towards something I will remember for the rest of my life is a GREAT feeling. Not only am I thankful for this opportunity but I am also very thankful for my family and their support. I am happy with what God has given me throughout my whole life. I am thankful for all the good and all the bad. I heard somewhere that you have to be thankful for all the bad in your life too but they didn't say why. How I see it is that without the bad, there would be no good. We wouldn't be able to appreciate the good as much as we do if there was no bad. Well Happy Thanksgiving.
