The little things

One of Tori's friends stopped by the other day with Tori. She sat in the chair, looked around, then said, "I love your house at Christmastime Rosie, it's magical."

I teach the eight year olds in Primary. A couple of weeks ago I told them that I wouldn't be there the following Sunday, so they would have a substitute teacher. Things didn't work out as I had hoped, so I ended up being there. When I sat down one of the boys turned around and said, "I thought we were having a substitute today. I'm glad YOU'RE here."

These sweet little comments reminded me that it is not always the grand gestures that make someone feel good, it is the little things. Merry Christmas everybody!
