Today’s themes: Kindness and Humor.
Today is the last day before Christmas break, for which I am so thankful! But even more than that, I’m thankful for the memories of my students today.
Like little J in the elf hat carefully bouncing down the hall to deliver cookies to office staff and anyone else she happened to pass.
Like little M- who didn’t talk to me at the beginning of the semester – resolutely placing the antlers on his head and turning to face me, fists on his hips. “Ms. Watson, do I look ridiculous?” It was more of a statement than a question and the suppressed mirth on his face told me he already knew the answer.
I hope they succeed well in school… but even more than that, I hope they keep growing in their kindness and humor.
And may they love the One who is the reason for our Christmas hope, kindness… and humor.
