Foster Five---February 11, 2017

1. The unexpected happens.  How we handle it speaks volumes.
2. We are here to lift one another when we fall.  Sometimes you are the lifter. Sometimes you are being lifted. 
3. Middle school teachers are some of the most patient, understanding, flexible, and resilient individuals on this planet.  Period.
4. Step out and be the "welcomer." Talk to people.  Avoid standing on the "sidelines" hoping someone else will do it.  Let it be you. 
5. Words can build or break.  Remind yourself and those in your life to choose words that build. It matters.
