Kindness

Showing others they are valuable by how you treat them!
Ann Elizabeth has started going to church on Wednesday night to Kid Jam. Once a month they have Fam Jam, where the family all goes together. Each month they have a character trait and this months was Kindness. As I sat with 3 little girls...sweet 1st graders who all cheer together, they got super excited about Kindness. They were told that they would be given 2 Crazy Bands (Silly Bands) each. One to keep for themselves and one to give to someone, totally out of the blue, someone who didn't expect it, not a "friend" or a popular kid. Maybe even one that was lonely.... as an act of kindness. Immediately these 3 little girls started talking between themselves of who they were going to give the Crazy Band to. It was so precious to sit and listen to them choose someone and then give the reason why they chose that person.
So, today AE came home and told me that she had chosen Wyatt to give the Crazy Band to. She said she went up to him and said that she wanted him to know that he was special and she wanted him to have the Crazy Band. She has such a sweet heart and is so tender.
We love our church and school....and this is just one more reason of why we send our child to a Christian school.
