It's the small things that can make a big difference. Yesterday, a friend bought a snack in a vending machine. When two snacks appeared, her face lit up and she said, "This made my day!" We have a wonderful custodian in our sixth-grade house and her name is Gloria. She always smiles. She works hard and she makes a big difference in my days here. As the classroom craziness and chaos ends, she quietly enters and says hello. Some days we chat, other days we don't, but she's always smiling. When she cleans the bathrooms, she folds the toilet paper and paper towels into a triangular point. She does this every day. Every day that I see it, I smile. I feel special. It feels like I'm in a five-star hotel. She does this for the students too. Taking this extra moment to make us feel loved and special...it matters. She matters. Pay attention to the small things. They matter. Thank you to the Two Writing Teachers for this amazing platform to write...
