As is traditional for schoolchildren at this time of year, R. was asked to put together a list of things for which he was thankful.
His list featured: bacteria, elements, electricity, and equal rights.
He expressed some confusion at his peers who mostly expressed appreciation for their families, pets, media devices, and sports.
And much as there's a teeny bit of wry sadness at "Mom" not making the short list, I have to admit, in the grand scheme of things, bacteria are really more important.

.. granted, also for the things on the other kids' lists. Although sports probably wouldn't make my top twenty or even hundred list. O:)
