Kim and I received this email from a friend of ours today. They wanted us to know that our youngest daughter, Emily had been a blessing to their daughter this week in class.
Any time a parent hears something like this about one of their children they get a priceless feeling of pride (the good kind). Fortunately, we get this kind of feedback on all our kids often.
You might see this as bragging, but hey, my blog right? Kim and I just believe that our kids are amazing and we brag on them all the time.
Here is the email:
Hey guys, This past Wednesday night our second grade girls moved into a new class situation. They started going to class with the third and fourth graders for their large group time. Susie (not her real name)takes a little while to acclimate to change and this room full of older kids really caught her off guard. She started to cry and John (not his real name) sat there trying to console her, but with no success. Emily came up and put her arm around Susie. She asked what was wrong and then said "Come on, Susie, you can go with Julie (not her real name) and I to class." Then she and Susie and Julie walked down the hall together and all was right with the world for Susie. Such a little gesture, but such a great outpouring of the love of Jesus. These girls blessed us and our precious Susie. We just wanted you to know.
Love to you all, Mary (not her real name)
"I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart;I will glorify your name forever." Psalm 86:11-12
How about you all? Anyone want to brag on their kids? Come on with it!

Yes...I want to brag on my kids. I will even let your e-mail do it. It's okay, Joel, you don't have to change Cayce's name to Julie. Cayce came home and told Jen and I about it and we were so proud. Then she went nuts and threw a fit when we wouldn't let her call Emily during lunch. Ups. Downs. Such is the life of parenting a second grader.
