Family Traditions

Twice a week the school guidance counselor comes to Samantha's classroom to teach little lessons such as manners, kindness, differences between good behavior and bad behaviors.  Last week the kids were asked to draw a picture of a family tradition and this was what Samantha drew:

She drew that her tradition was family prayer, morning and night.  I was so proud of her when I saw her drawing and I'm sure that not many kids in her class would have drawn a picture like this.  As a parent you worry so much that the things you are trying to teach your children are not going to stick and that we're not doing a very good job.  But this picture made me feel like we must be doing something right and that makes me feel so good!  Plus, it's a little reminder that we need to keep up on our "family tradition."  Thank you Samantha!!!
