To be thankful

My 8-year-old niece, Caroline, wrote a list of things she is thankful for. She let me read this list, and although it's probably completely wrong of me, I could not stop laughing. Caroline explained of the list, "It gets kind of weird."
(spelling intact, explanations in italics)
These are some things I am thankful for: my house, my family, my food, my school, my brain, my toys, drinks, room, snacks, windows, doors, teacher, pools, movies, colors, shoes, pets, seats, radios, books, songs, clothing, frenitar (furniture), stairs, tables, beds, friends, apples, bananas, cups, boxes, clocks, chips, cars, sisters, brothers, dolls, flowers, trees, paper, chains, phones, rocks, places (hmmm, that was pretty general), pictures, balls, flags, mom, dad, leafs, notebooks, church, abc's, TV, dogs, doctors, music, loshen (lotion), bla(n)kets, that we can learn, numbers, cherrys, crabs, people, seas, fishes, sun, cloud, glasses, plants, coats, dresses, pillows, light, cats, bowling, shows, Noggin, folders, grass, bats, stars, time, faces, juice, parents, Emma, Luke, necklaces, shirts, purses, girls, boys, pants, money, spoons, cities, states, countries, CTR, Jesus, sacrament, people in church, presents, donashoins (donations), cou(n)ties, DI, Nintendo DS, presedents, babies, high chairs, kitchens, chairs, dollhouse people, dollhouse, dollhouse stuff, babys--carrier, bags, matress, storage, closet, vacume, X-rays, teeth, lips, skirts, ships, boats, fruits, Vegtables, eyes, hair, neck, nose, hearts, ribs, tummies, belly buttons, legs, feet, flip flops, paper towles, napkins, toilets, toilet-paper, toothbrush, toothpaste, dentist, carton, words, towles, soap, bathroom, rugs, firemen, police, couches, Santa, sinks, showers, Visitors, gel pens, pens, pencils, mirrors, shapes, grades, medison night, morning adress, draws, art, crayon, the end
