Life Lessons from the HoneyBees

Another thing to be thankful for: Our AWESOME perfect couldn't-ask-for-a-better-place school where Shelby spends her days! Her teachers are so loving and really care about their little HoneyBees. After being out of school since Wednesday for the holidays, Shelby was crying, "I want to go to school!!" by Saturday night. Now that's something to be thankful for! A place where she is loved and happy! Ms Yolanda just sent us this email document:

Throughout our busy grown-up lives, we ignore the small things that occur daily that fill us with love and changes us. All of us know at least one person whose influence has greatly inspired us to change our perspective on life for the better. I’m blessed that I have eleven little friends who do just that everyday.

Shelby reminds me that it’s great to have a friend to call on when you need them. “I need you Linnea,” she says.

Gabriel and Mark remind me that two friends are stronger together than apart. Gabe asks, “Where’s Mark,” and Mark asks “Where’s Gabe.”

Linnea reminds me that it’s ok to be silly and to laugh often.

Ryan King reminds to play hard, eat much and sleep well.

Isabella and Madelyn help me remember that family is what matters the most and that a family member is always close by when you need them.

Ryan Carr reminds me to always stop and listen to the music and to dance as if no one is watching.

Ryann Ward helps me remember that you don’t have to be a grown up to shout joyously anytime of the day.

Lucas helps me remember that a smiling face often warms the hearts of others.

Natalia reminds me that it’s always good to help others.

We are never too old to learn from the very young.
