ONLY Eleven?
Ok, so nothing has happened with the beard, except that it is out of control burly. Burlier than I have ever had a beard before. And white. When kids see me without a mask they either can’t breathe for a little bit and freak out a bit or they yell, “Santa! Look, it’s Santa!” Neither response is really anything I enjoy but the kids are so dang cute… it always makes me smile.
Anyways, so in the 100 Acts of Kindness Challenge” I only have 11 responses so far. ONLY eleven? And probably three or four of them are from the same beautiful Miss Fiona! This number originally made me sad. Does no one want to be kind anymore? Are we only kind so that we get a piece of candy? Am I EVER going to be able to shave again?
But then I thought about it. Please look at this picture closely. Sweet Alice wrote an acrostic poem for her teacher! I had to look up the meaning of an acrostic poem. How cool is that! Fiona wrote a kind letter to her teacher! How awesome is that! Yea, eleven is not a huge number, but is a number larger than zero, and I will take that ANY day! I might look like Rip Van Winkle before we ever get to a 100, but it will be worth it!
