And this is why I do this......

Below is an email that I received from my dear friend that I chose to bless for this week's McPIFP.

I will keep her name anonymous, but just to give you some insight.... she is one of my peers that I go to school with. She is a perfectly independent and happy woman, so it's not that I felt sorry for her, because she is not one to feel sorry for. She is content with who she is and will some day be an awesome teacher. She has a passion for children that I have only seen in a few of us, therefore making us form a unique bond.

I chose to bless her this week, because my heart felt led to do so. I know that she would've probably been okay to not receive anything from me for Valentine's Day, but I now know that her life was just a little bit more blessed all because I let her know that I was thinking of her.

I hope you enjoy. =)

I just wanted you to know how much the card and candy meant to me. I waited to open the card because I wasn't sure I wanted to with people around... so I waited unti I got in the car, and I was glad I did, since I got a bit emotional about it. Then I did on the way home, too. Then last night. But it's a good emotional--really!! The card is propped up on my microwave now, in a place where I'll see it a lot. The candy is there, too-- I'm making myself wait until Valentine's Day to eat it!

Thank you so much for your kindness and thoughtfulness. It's so easy to see how your students will love you, when you are such a caring person!
