She sends food home on Fridays with kids who aren't certain to eat over the weekend. She makes sure the kids with volatile parents always go home on "green." She has comforted kids whose parents have gone to jail. She knows CPS officers by name. She does her utmost to give her students a strong start to their school careers.

My wife teaches Kindergarten. When she tells me the circumstances some of her students go home to, I am reminded she is a warrior.

@geobabbler Kindness propagates. I was lost as a kid and a friend's family took me in and treated me as one of their own. Today we let people who need a place to reset and breathe stay in our garage apartment for free. We've graduated engineers, ministers and healthcare workers. People go back to school to finish degrees. It's a small thing but it gives the stability they need to move forward.
