Today I was volunteering in Adelie's kindergarten classroom. I work one-on-one with kids who need a little extra help with handwriting or fine motor skills. For the last 5-10 minutes of my volunteer time, Mrs. Doty lets Adelie pick a friend, and Adelie and her friend get to work with me in the hallway for a little bit. Today when it was Adelie's turn to pick a friend, a bunch of kids started raising their hands for Adelie to pick them. She looked around and then chose a boy in her class that has many behavioral and learning difficulties. He was thrilled! When we got home, Adelie told me that she picked him because he's always in trouble and doesn't usually get picked to do fun things. I couldn't have been more proud!!
I love this girl's kind heart and selfless spirit!
