Keeping the Home by Lori Seaborg

Stone told Brittany last night that Katie and Alyssa like her more than they like him. Brittany is the one who repeated that to me. She seemed a bit shaken with it, like she wasn't sure she should have people liking her more than they do someone else.
Brittany is liked by everyone she meets. The reason is that Brittany is friendly.
Proverbs 18:24 states: "A man (and a 7-year-old girl) that has friends must show himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticks closer than a brother."
Today, Brittany walked out of Sunday School with two vanilla wafers in her hand. Her big brother saw her cookies and immediately mentioned that "it's not fair", there weren't any cookies given in his Sunday School class.
It was predictable what Britty would do. Within a second, she said, "Here, Brenden. I have two. You can have one."
We then walked downstairs to pick up the baby and then Stone, our four-year-old. We we got to Stone's classroom, Brittany pushed us aside so she could be the first to see him as he came out of his class.
"Here, Stone. I have a cookie for you," she said, as she handed over her only remaining cookie.
Incidences like that, which happen frequently, are why Britty has as many friends as there are kids to meet.
She "shows herself friendly." |
