Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving Day is a national holiday celebrated primarily in the United States and Canada as a day of giving thanks for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year. In November 1621, after the Pilgrims’ first corn harvest proved successful, Governor William Bradford organized a celebratory feast and invited a group of the fledgling colony’s Native American allies, including the Wampanoag chief Massasoit. Now remembered as American’s “first Thanksgiving”—although the Pilgrims themselves may not have used the term at the time—the festival lasted for three days. While no record exists of the historic banquet’s exact menu, the Pilgrim chronicler Edward Winslow wrote in his journal that Governor Bradford sent four men on a “fowling” mission in preparation for the event, and that the Wampanoag guests arrived bearing five deer.

I think what Ian did was really cool. Because not a lot of people would do what he did, some people would of have just kept the ball while the person who wanted it more felt really sad. I’m pretty sure that he made that kids day just by giving him a ball and as a reward he got something way better than just a ball, he got a baseball bat signed by his favorite player and some tickets. If you do something good in life I’m sure something good will happen in life.
