Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving Day

                     As we all know that thanksgiving started because pilgrims allowed native Americans to come over and have a feast with them .but what we don’t know is the background and the real reason why thanksgiving actually became noticed. And that back then there food was not the same as it was before to even begin with the pilgrims didn’t even carry down the thanksgiving tradition until George Washington declared that it should be celebrated in November 26 but it was declared that it should be an annual tradition until the 19^th century. Until an American writer Sara Josepha hale  got inspired   by a  diary of the pilgrims  and pictured her imaginary first feast. from that day on she try to raise a promotion on declaring thanksgiving to continue. In around the 1800s Abraham Lincoln declared that thanksgiving was going to proceed on the 26^th of November but little did you know that in 1939 Franklin D. Roosevelt moved the day to the 27^th because it would give more time for people to buy  .in 1989 George h w  bush  Granted the first official pardon to a turkey. After that it was sentenced for each president to spare a turkeys life and send them to a retirement from being on a farm other than being on a dinner plate.

 I am thankful for still being alive after so many pains

I am than full for having the best family that I can possibly ever ask for

I am thankful for actually having someone I can kind of call my little baby brother.

I am thankful for knowing that my family will be with me in every step of the way

I am thankful having a house of my own

I am thankful for having to say that I am part of something other than  just being the invisible person

My reflection:  to be honest I didn’t know about the background to the thanksgiving story and how it was declared to be a national tradition. I just thought that it was the day of the feast and that’s it.
