I’m writing this one during our Coronavirus stay-at-home time. Our neighbors have three little ones, and one day we saw something fun out our window. I think it might have been the pre-schooler’s teachers. After coming by and talking with the kids from a distance, the dressed-up characters turned around and took a selfie with the kids in the background.

The kids seemed happy, but it brightened our day as well. Seeing people go out of their way to connect and bring smiles to faces.

In November, the month where the United States celebrates Thanksgiving, I try to post each day — highlighting something I’m thankful for. This year I tried to do three from each month of the year so far.
