Thankfulness, day 10

I am thankful for England. For how people love their gardens and green spaces. For old red phone booths and double decker buses. For beautiful accents and exciting spellings...like jewellery and favourite. For squash that children love and for chimney pots, dogs running free in the park, dogs on the bus, dogs tied to a ring (for that purpose) outside a high street store. For tea and oat cakes, the BBC and the millions of things to do in London. For people who love to make their own cards, for a culture that gives MANY Christmas cards, even from the post man. For the post man who goes around on his bicycle. For the really, really bright high vis vests..I didn't know they made that color. For the NHS, so I can take my child to the hospital for a minor concern of an injury, when I never would have in the states, if I had to pay for it! For amazing play grounds with a swing like a papason that many kids can sit on and swing from, for deer who aren't afraid of people or cars and hang out in the park all day, for being able to see a fox when I look out my window at 3 am, for all the fireworks, and that my son now says "gair-edge" for garage!
