Only one thing I would add at the top of my list. Be kind. Kindness and not quitting will take you far and enrich your world. Hope the children have a great year.

It's called 'Character Counts' <br />There are six pillars of character and when a child is seen demonstrating one of those pillars they were recognized on a bulletin board and at the monthly assembly.<br /><br />I'm not sure if the spam filter will let me post the link, so if you're interested search for 'Josephson Institute Six Pillars'CaroleDeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04914006856363784964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984487997306130330.post-27902197259534022802013-08-14T03:32:50.129-05:002013-08-14T03:32:50.129-05:00I think this list applies to kids and adults alike...I think this list applies to kids and adults alike. I could definitely learn a lot from it. The friends thing is so important. Already I don't love every child my daughter is friends with and wish there was a way to influence it a bit more. One friend in particular is going to drag her down. But she's four. Hopefully plenty of time for that particular friendship to wane!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984487997306130330.post-59665561123728718552013-08-13T23:57:49.816-05:002013-08-13T23:57:49.816-05:00I think this will make a nice, framed photo (with ...I think this will make a nice, framed photo (with credit given where it is due) for my office wall.

I taught my kids my motto in life, "what goes around, comes around," and they're both pretty nice adults - plus they are amazed to see this come true over and over.Sharon Greenthalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06341769570752679625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984487997306130330.post-32653652378149910912013-08-13T08:43:42.063-05:002013-08-13T08:43:42.063-05:00I love this .
