Story of the Month – February 2012

Story by Chris, a Kindergarten Teacher, in Fort Wayne, IN.

As a gift for my students, I knitted each one a warm winter scarf.  The kids were excited to receive their scarves, and they looked so cute wearing them home. The next day, one little boy came to school without his scarf. He explained that the night before his mom had mentioned how cold it was going to be in the morning, so he secretly wrapped his scarf to give to her so she wouldn’t be cold. It was heartwarming to know this little boy already knew how to pay it forward.
