loving kindness
my 9 year old is having a hard time
she has been very fortunate in her school years to have found teachers who connect with her
who have seen the strengths in her and worked with those
i went to her most loved teacher recently
needing some help
and the teacher came and took my 9yearold to her house on a Sunday
fed the horses
baked some biscuits
played with the kittens
and filled my daughter up
i can't tell you what that choice of love has meant to our family

So very lovely.
ReplyDeleteWhat a treasure that teacher is.
What a treasure your daughter is
and you too, for asking for help
and accepting it.

This is so sad and happy and beautiful to me. I wish I'd had a teacher like that when I was 9. What a blessing she is. Both of them.
