Thanksgiving

Kennedy wrote a Thanksgiving day speech to say at dinner.  We thought we’d share it with you.

In the year 1621, the pilgrims and the Indians had the first Thanksgiving feast.  To prepare they hunted, fished and grew veggies.  Their feasted lasted three days.  That’s a great abundance of food!  At the first Thanksgiving, they ate deer, chicken, fish, rabbit, onions, cranberry and other fruits, carrots, eggs, and beans.  This is different than what we eat today at Thanksgiving.  We eat turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie and corn.  Just like on the first Thanksgiving we sing, dance, talk, play games and tell stories.

Thanks giving is a day for giving thanks.  I am thankful for Bella, Alex, Mom, Dad, Nama, Papa, Jillian, Jenna, Auntie Anne, Uncle Chris, Nana & Zizia.  I am also thankful for all my teachers, and friends, my house and for this food we have on Thanksgiving.  We thank the Lord for blessing us.

Amen

Love Kennedy
