The Shoulders Of Kindness

This quote found me this weekend and won't let me go,
so I put it on this picture of Joshua and John.


On the shoulders of kindness, what a great legacy to live.
The other day one of my kindergarten friends was invited
to tell her about my small-group feelings class.
He told her that he comes there to learn to be kind.
Then he added that Mrs. Gruener just wants us to be kind.
I got a little teary-eyed. And then I smiled.
Don't teachers have a big big job? It's heart work, for sure.
If you're a teacher, happy Teacher Appreciation Week.
Know that we celebrate, appreciate and love you.
You may not feel it every day
or know the impact you've made right away.
But one day, when you least expect it,
your influence will roar like a lion ...
and you'll be glad you answered the call and stayed the course.

To celebrate, Carson Dellosa is offering this money-saving offer ...
