Week Fifteen of my Short Story Challenge

 The Thanksgiving Retreat                By: Everly


Once there was a girl who was going to Thanksgiving. 

Her family drove through the night from California to Washington, and arrived at a big house her whole dad’s side of the family was staying at. 

She got to see her cousin, Kelly. And her Grandma and her Papa, and all her aunts and uncles, and her other cousin Jordan. 

She had a lot of fun and got to sleep on bunk-beds, and hang out with her family.

Eventually, Thanksgiving day came.

Everyone gathered round the table, and was ready to eat.

But first they prayed, they thanked God for everything they had.

Then the girl realized, God is the reason you have anything to be thankful for. 

He created your friends, your pets, the sky, your life, you, and everything else.

Thanksgiving would be nothing without God. 

So next time you’re at Thanksgiving, make sure you thank God, because he’s the only reason you have anything to be Thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving!
