Putting The "Remer" In Thanks

In talking with so many people I'm obligated to introduce myself at least a million times every single day. The people here usually have a hard time with my last name either saying "Remy" (Like a frenchy way) or "Reemar" (The broken english way) and in explaining how to say it; my go to way is to say it's like the remer in "je vous REMERcie". The verb remercier in french means to thank so in the spirit of Thanksgiving and my last name here are a couple things I'm thankful for (if you don't really care just scroll down for some cool pictures):

I'm thankful for the opportunity I've had to live here for the past year and a half

For the occasion to learn another language

For the people here that I love

For the people back home that I love

For the people who have helped me grow and better understand the world

For the guy that invented air conditioning

That we can talk from the other side of the world so easily

For my crocs

For sliced bread

For the gospel of Jesus Christ

Anyway hope everybody has a great thanksgiving- here are some pictures of my dope nativity set, us baptizing Donatien, and another random kid wearing the legendary Remer hat.
