August 30, 2010 – Great Days

My little girl is in her first few days of school.

It’s been kind of a rough transition for the poor thing.

Today she came home with huge smiles, beaming with pride in her ‘new job’, quick to share her work was completed and full of excitement in relaying her day.  Searching her backpack later, I found a quickly jotted down note…. clearly done in a rush, when there were probably 20 kids needing something, the end of the day madness and chaos that only a primary teacher can understand, but also one that held such importance.   “She had a great day!” it said in quick handwriting.

Thank you, to this wonderful person, for fostering my child’s development and for carefully encouraging her with love.  Thank you for taking those few seconds in the middle of your chaos to quickly let me know she did ‘great’ today.   Thank you for helping her to have this great day.

For you, and for all the others like you, I am grateful.
