So Proud of This Boy

I had a mom call me and tell me thank you for raising such a good boy. She said, Van has been the talk of their household. Her son Matthew had been crying everyday not wanting to go to school, but today he told his mom, “I’ll be okay, because Van will be there.” Van saw the boy crying the first day of school and at recess Van told him don’t cry, I will play with you and you will be happy. Van didn’t know the boy before Kindergarten. 

Van is the type of person that doesn't like anyone sad. If someone is sad Van is the one to do something kind or silly to make them laugh or feel better. In the passed when I have gotten upset at one of the other children Van is there saying just hold her mommy. Van is such a caring little boy and we are blessed by his example. We are so proud of you Van!

"This was one of the happiest days of my life. Knowing my son did this made all the trials of life worth it. Van, I wish I was more like you. I love you."
