I am most thankful for...
my family, because I would not even be born, and I would not even be able to go to school, or I would not even be able to breathe, or speak, or walk, or think, or see, and I would not meet people to talk. And I am most thankful for my clothes, because I could cross the street without clothes, and I would be nervous, because the people would laugh at you and would be: "he's crazy with no clothes in the street", how could he stand it, people laughing at him like that, "I would get dressed first if I were him", they would say if I did not have clothes. I am most thankful for having a school, because I would not even be able to learn addition, or multiplication and division, and I would not even be reading, or know how to do a test or problem for a test, or to add or subtract, or do math, because they would be: he does not know how to add or subtract numbers, or have a test of addition or subtraction and multiplication, or I would not be able to know about mountains, or about people, or about rivers, and about the U.S.A.

I am most thankful for...
my family, because it is the best thing to be with our cousin and brother, sister, and my mom, and my aunt, and my whole family, and from Puerto Rico, and I would not even let my family down because I'm always with my family, and from New York, because my aunt's house is burned up, because the airplane fell down at my aunt's house, and my grandma went to New York, it was an accident.

Mi Día de Acción de Gracias
Es un día muy especial para mí y mi familia. Lo primero que hice cuando amaneció fue agradecerle a Dios, todas las cosas buenas que El me ha dado. El día estaba soleado y frío. Recibí una sorpresa muy linda, mi tío Alex de Pennsylvania, con mis primos Israel y Zelani. Pasé un día muy divertido y dándole gracias a Dios, por mi familia.
