Shiny and beautiful

It just makes the cake

I draws you to the bakery window

Licking your lips

Forgetting the diet

And remembering just how sweet

Our little life can be.

I had a bit of a tough week at work this week, and I couldn’t wait for it to be over. So, I was slogging my way through my final lesson on Friday afternoon, with a class full of eleven year old who probably wanted to be there even less than I did.

And then, just before the bell went, while we were packing away books and pencil cases, a boy in the front row leaned in towards me and said ‘thanks for a really nice lesson, miss.’

My heart melted just a little bit. That boy probably had no idea that I’d had a tough week, but he just happened to say a really nice thing at a time that I really needed it.

And it meant that I could go home for the weekend with a smile on my face. It was a sweet little cherry that prettied up a rather ugly week.

Much Love
