Thanksgiving Break


What I am Thankful for


        My brother, James, is in the United States Marine Corps, and he lives in North Carolina. Him living there is a reason why I rarely get to see him, not that I did when he lived at home, but it is hard none the less. Him being a marine he does not get very much time off of “work”, but over thanksgiving weekend he had got an extra three days of leave ( leave is the word that my brother uses when he gets to come home for more than one day). I also had an extra three days off of school that weekend because it was a holiday break. On my brother’s leave I got to spend a whole day with him, just the two of us. We went to Duncan Donuts, because it is my favorite place, and ate hot coco dipped donuts.  I had I great time with my brother, over our long weekend. I am thankful for the short, but meaningful time I had got to spend with my brother.
