Today’s giving: I’ve been dropping our exchange student off at the bus stop all year. Because its Friday, I gave her a ride to school instead.

I’d love to take her to school directly everyday, but it takes quite a bit of extra time I don’t have in the morning. So Friday was the compromise.

Nonetheless, I was rather surprised to hear her say excitedly this morning that it was Friday and she gets a ride to school.

No matter how altruistic we are, its still nice to hear someone appreciate our efforts.
