our class spent time this week talking about gratitude

and the importance of offering thank you’s to people we are grateful for.

the kinder drew pictures and dictated thank you notes for their families.

i had the honor of writing out the words above

for a child’s thank you that he wanted to give to his family.

it was one of simplest, most powerful, and beautiful thank you’s i’ve yet to see.
