My son is waiting to have a package delivered. He needs a cord for his new game. I looked out the front door and saw a package. I yelled for him to come downstairs to claim his prize.
He came running down the stairs, tearing into the package. Only to see it wasn’t for him. He said, “I think this is for you?” I took the package from him. It was a t-shirt and I knew exactly who it was from. It was my inner circle, the circle of trust. The sent me the most wonderful gift… it was a gift for School Social Worker Appreciation Week. (see pic below) It was much appreciated, and I am so grateful to have them. They are the most supportive group a social worker could have personally and as colleagues. There are times where you feel disconnected through these challenging times. Then, in an instant you realize how that just because you are not seeing each other, you are still forever connected…just in different ways and the right time. Thank you and I can’t wait to wear it!!
