Readers:
As I wrote this verse, I was thinking of what I would have thought being in the 1st and 2nd grades. I remember back to my 1st grade and the Nun teacher (Sister Marie) that I had at a Catholic Church school. That was my beginnings till the 4th grade, and then I was transferred to the public school system, bused for 14 miles until high school graduate.

I remember always being a thinker; even when I was young and swinging on the swing set at our home.

I was raised in between 4 brothers; so I thought I also had the best of both worlds! My parents also did not show favoritism, as they treated us all the same. Although since my youngest brother had a heart problem at birth, the baby of the family is often treated special. But each of us showed love and care, kindness to one another.

May your life treat you with kindness,
Carol
