Sharing Love

Joanna’s mother, an early childhood educator, spent her free time collecting craft supplies and searching the internet for innovative projects. Joanna was used to being her mother’s craft guinea pig and wondered what made her mother work so hard.

“Joanna! Honey! Will you come with me to the dollar store?” her mother yelled one afternoon. Here we go again. Joanna thought. “Okay, Mom, I’m coming!” she replied.

Joanna stared out the window on the way to the store. What does Mom gain in doing all this? Is she even appreciated?

“Mom? Why do you keep doing all this for your students? Is it worth it?” Joanna asked.

“Love only grows by sharing. You can only have more for yourself by giving it away to others. The happiness my students express make me happy and I’m confident it spreads to make life full of love for all.”
