....because there was an exhibit by local school children about kindness!! 2nd-3rd graders wrote out an act of kindness on slips of paper and we were to draw one and abide by their wish. OMG I burst out crying! The teacher was there and I barely got out how she was doing a good job. These kids will save us. of course we will be dead but my grand children will benefit. There needs to be more of this!

They will build a brand-new world that would be alien to us, and I try to stay positive about their survival.

I work in a primarily economically depressed vacation destination, and there are a lot of foster kids we work with as well. The love I receive from all of them on a daily basis is like a vitamin to me :love:
While there's always a degree of the "wild kingdom" of it all... especially with the kinders who are just learning how to be little humans, they are definitely just little lovers!
