Name three things you're thankful your parents taught you. Manners ( I can't stand it when people don't use them), I am thankful that my mother started to teach me to play the piano and encouraged me to take lessons and continue (I play the piano for relaxation and enjoyment now), and to both of them for teaching me that it is better to have no friends then to have friends just for the sake of having them even though you don't agree with their values etc (it gave me the courage to dump a lot of my friends by mid grade nine and be by myself for a bit.

Your parents would be & are so proud of you for saying this.

Name three things you're thankful your parents taught you. Independence, my dad was in the military and my mom worked. By 10 years old I was taking care of my brothers and learning to cook. The importance of family, my brothers and I are still very close to this day because of this lesson. To respect the privacy and property of others.


Name three places you're thankful you visited. Spain, Italy, France


Name three foods you're thankful you tried. Escargo, Calamari, Mussels


Name three dreams you're thankful you followed. Motherhood, buying a home, traveling


Name any three things you're thankful for outside of the above categories. DH, DS, DD

Hi Amber,
Oh thanks to your parents you have learned life's important lessons.

I am thankful that my parents taught me to be polite/nice/have manners, to stand up for what I believe in, and to know that I can do anything I put my mind to
These sound so simple yet take lots of work to get there.
No doubt they are very proud of you!

Lovely places you have been & wouldn't be the same without
You too on those foods, very brave, LOL
Such wonderful dreams you made your reality.
Something to be very proud of!

Life sounds absolutely wonderful for you!
Gotta love it .. thanks for the share :)
