This year, both Elizabeth and DJ
made a “Thankful List!” craft. (We had fun!)
This was DJ’s first time, and he got excited about the idea of a list as soon as I suggested it to him. I had to write fast to keep up with him as he rattled off his list!
We traced each hand onto colored paper, cut them out, and transcribed the lists onto the handprint “turkeys.” DJ loves to cut paper – and is actually very good at it! But I helped this time. While I was cutting out his project, he said: “Very good, Mommy! Good job!”

Elizabeth had to organize her
list, prioritizing from 1 to 10.
We’ve also enjoyed looking back at lists from previous years: 2011, 2010, and 2009 (E’s first list when she was about DJ’s current age). So glad to have taken up the “tradition” again this year...
So much to be thankful for!
