❤️‍🩹 Kids don’t need a perfect home. They need a peaceful one.

Because when you choose peace, you teach them that they’re allowed to, too. ❤️

You’ve set up everything to live your best life, but did you give yourself permission to live it?

Thinking of former colleagues and friends who are still teaching. Grateful that they will protect kids through the chaos that is coming. I’m proud of you. I’m here for you. And I will help you in every way possible. It is a true tyrant that goes after kids and marginalized populations.

The world can be awful, but…
I will protect my children.
I will be a voice against injustice.
I will spread small kindnesses.
I will forgive, but I will not excuse.
I will watch the sunrise each morning.
I will provide resources and connections.
I will fight ugliness with simple acts of beauty.
