"When a child gives you a gift, even if it is a rock they just picked up, exude gratitude. It might be the only thing they have to give, and they have chosen to give it to you." -Dean Jackson
I found this quote on pinterest and I just love it! It reminds me of the pictures and things my students have given to me. I keep all of the art they have given to me in my notebook as a reminder to myself that they could have been doing something else or made a picture for someone else, but they chose to make one for me. As teacher's, 'little' things like this need to be a big deal to us because they are a big deal to our students.
