Skyler's "Service & Compassion"


All winter long, Skyler & Laron have been making sure to shovel our next door neighbor's driveway when it snows, because her husband passed away a year or two ago... Well, one day Skyler was home from school & Laron was working, when it began snowing.  After a few hours, Skyler says to me, "Mom, I think I want to do some service & compassion."  I wondered what exactly he was talking about, since I'd never heard him use that particular phrase before... He went on to explain: "Our teacher has been teaching us about "Service & Compassion" this month, so I really wanted to do some "Service & Compassion" today, so I think I'll go shovel MaryAnn's driveway right now."  So he went out & shoveled OUR driveway & HER driveway, all by himself!  What an amazing kid!  And whatever they're teaching you at that Charter School of your's Skyler, I hope they keep on teaching you!!!  :)
