Today after class I had a student stay after just a tiny bit after her friends left to share some encouraging words with me. I sat at my desk amazed as an eighth grade girl gave me generous and genuine affirmation. Her words were kind, and I could tell she was nervous saying them.
But she said them.
I wonder if I would have had the courage to compliment even my very favorite teachers that way at any age during school.
Such a brave and gracious girl.
Today I am thankful for the lovely young people that will some day grow up to be lovely adults.
