A team effort...


Act of Kindness #14
G.C. and H.C. worked together this week to bake some delicious cookies. S.C. suggested that they deliver these baked goods to their new neighbors.  What a personal way to make this elderly couple feel welcomed to the neighborhood.  Great team work!!!

Act of Kindness #15
G.C. took 5 extra minutes at the end of her work day to connect with her students. She explains that the teachers all take the students to the bus and most of the teachers have "tuned out" by this point of the day. They push the students to the bus without much attention or they are wrapped up in conversations with the other teachers.  G.H. said she never noticed how disconnected everyone was until recently.  So she made a conscious effort this week to wave goodbye, smile, and acknowledge the children as they were loading the buses. She said the students really responded well to this extra effort.  Who knows maybe this very simple act brightened a child's day???

I just wanted to take a minute to say great work everybody!!! Your good deeds are pouring in and I am just so inspired by all of you.  Thank you for embracing this challenge with me!
