Belonging to Someone

 

     Today, as I looked around the classroom I noticed many “Beautiful” children all in their seats ready to learn.  When I say beautiful I do mean it.  I started to think why my mind was making me think about the beauty of each child.  My motherly instincts kicked in and I placed each face with a gem that each carried.  Each of these children belong to someone.  I thought about my two children sitting in someone else’s classroom.  Was their teacher thinking about their gems? 

     So I sat and looked around thinking what gem belongs to each of them.  Some were harder to identify than others.  I kept thinking that each of those children belonged to someone!  That someone has left them in my hands.  It is my job to think before I speak and remember that each child belongs to Someone!
