So true!

Powerful reminder. 🧡

It’s hard to take care of kids when we’re not taking care of the adults taking care of the kids. Recognize. Acknowledge. Extend. On repeat. #LeadFromWhoYouAre

Powerful reminder. 🧡

Not every child walks back into school after Christmas break feeling rested, celebrated, or safe. For some kids, the holidays are loud. Or lonely. Or heavy. Or something they’re just relieved is over. So as they come through our doors this week, love on your kids a little extra. A smile. A gentle word. Sitting down at their level. Letting them talk—or just letting them be quiet. You may be the first genuine affection they’ve felt in two weeks. The first adult who sees them. The first place that feels steady again. School isn’t just academics. Sometimes it’s refuge. Sometimes it’s regulation. Sometimes it’s love. Lead with grace this week.

Wonderful lunch and catching up with the ladies! We go waaayyy back teaching 2nd grade together in Mesquite ISD. Lots of much needed laughter!
