Day Fifty One

I feel very good about my expressions of gratitude. I'm very much in the holiday spirit. Yesterday I wrote to my friend who is about to have a baby any minute! She just had a false alarm today. She is an amazing woman who is going to bring a little miracle into this world and shower it with all of her awesomeness as a mommy. I can hardly wait!

Today, I wrote to the headmaster of my daughter's old school. She is away at a Diversity Leadership Conference and she texted me early this morning upon arrival to say that she ran into the Diversity Director from her old school. I could tell she was very excited. It made me extremely grateful for the 9 years we spent at that school. It helped mold her into this fantastic young person she is today. She made some lasting connections that will have meaning to her for a very long time. I love the Diversity Director too, yet I immediately thought of the head of school and how significant his contributions are to every person in the school community. I was very emotional when I wrote it. I think I'm feeling nostalgic today.
