Today we remember Fred Rogers and a life devoted to kindness, compassion, and care for children. Though he passed on February 27, 2003, his lessons continue to guide and comfort us every day. #FredRogers A photo from the Lynn Johnson Collection, Ohio University Libraries.

“His name was King Friday XIII. We just thought that was fun because so many people are so superstitious about Friday the 13th that we thought, let’s start children out thinking that Friday the 13th was a fun day. And every Friday the 13th would be his birthday.”

@alicekeeler @Beyond_the_Desk 🙏 - also 🤞re: 'sent home' vs. suspension (

I think they will. I just didn't want to talk more than I had to. I just said I would pick him up. Letting the hubs get the full story and share more about our side. School is pretty great, so I feel pretty confident it will work out. But I'm still going to keep him home for today and tomorrow to let him get in a better head space.

My mom died this morning. Made the mistake thinking my 12 year old would be okay at school. Predictably he had an emotional outburst and got suspended. Any tips for how to help him with some strategies?

I just got my 3rd project funded through @donorschoose! Thank you @PandaExpress ❤️

@dieworkwear Those combs are lovely 😍

Some things I saw recently that I think are cool: — Todd Snyder FW25 tailoring in tweed, velvet, mohair blend (?), and boucle — Eisuke Yamashita's Paraboots — Painted horn combs for the Chinese imperial court —  Quincy A. Jones home for sale at 815 Bramble Way, Los Angeles

@daleheywood3 @dieworkwear @OneWarrior17 Same!

@dieworkwear @OneWarrior17 Loved this thread. I’m Canadian and had no idea of this history, though I grew up in the 60’s/70’s with them and lots of little kids had ones made by grandma. Thanks!

I can. In fact, the Canadian version is so great, I can't think of an American equivalent. 🧵
