It's Time To Be Good!

The other day I was reading the newspaper & I came across an article that I loved. It was a really good reminder to be a good person. It gets so easy with our busy lives to forget others. Stranger’s even. How easy is it to just walk right on by someone without even a simple hello or smile? I always try to be friendly but this article had some really great ideas on new things to do every day. I think that I’m going to write one of their ideas every week. Sort of like a little tip or a little push to do good. We can all use a little push every now & then . . . right. So here goes.

Tip #1
Read with a child

This is so simple to do. It’s something that I actually love to do & do daily. I look forward to reading with kids’ at the school where I work & reading at home every night with Kobe. Kobe actually looks forward to it too. By the time dinner’s over, he starts asking if it’s time to read yet. I just love that! And as someone who does read with students’ at the school, I can totally tell those students who are read to & those that aren’t. 20 minutes a day makes a world of difference. We always try to mix it up a little & read different genres. By far in our house the favorite type of book is superhero. Kobe just can’t get enough!
