Gratitude Challenge ~ Day 1

For the next 30 days I will be participating in the 2011 Gratitude Challenge hosted by Brenda at Garden of Learning.
Today I am grateful for the opportunity I have been given to be on the TOS Review Crew. 
~Even more specifically for Brenda and Heidi for giving me this opportunity. 
~With the economy being what it is and now being a single income family (a teacher's salary no less) it is difficult to afford all the curriculum we would like to have. 
~Being on the crew gives us the chance to try it before we buy it and the opportunity to help others decide if a product would work for their family as well.
