This week I visited Shannon at Kindercare to read stories to her three-year-old class. It was a blast for me to see her in action at work.I heard absolutely glowing reports from her bosses about Shannon's work and work ethic. It doesn't get much sweeter than that. Her faith in Christ and her beautiful spirit make me proud to know her as a person.
I got to see her as an individual, with different strenghths and abilities than I possess. I tried to see her for the first time, like an outsider would. She approaches her work with a sense of fun and playfulness, and she's fully engaged with each young life she touches.
Those kids may grow up and one day forget her, but I know she'll remember and cherish each interaction as a gift from their Creator.
