Children are our best teachers.

My friend, Pam Grout, who I told you about before, writes stories that speak to my heart. She and I share a belief in miracles; about how children are our best teachers, and a few other values. I can never get enough from her great stories.

Today I opened the email she shared, and that story had me nodding for the greater part of the day.

Is There Confetti in Your Pocket?

She mentioned a mother on Twitter sharing a story that she just had to share with her readers. Cool.

This evening I visited Twitter, and you know what, I bumped right into Anna, the mother who shared that story. She wasn’t someone I followed, but now I am. We’re cool.

Since posting it on Monday, people have retweeted Anna’s 50+K times and given it 423K❤️s — Viral! Wow! For my efforts, I got a ❤️ from Anna. Hehe. Check it out here.

Are you carrying confetti in your pocket? We all should for good news is everywhere.

Perhaps you’d enjoy this one as well. Happy Thanksgiving.

I Wish You Miracles.
