Good attitude and sunshine

Whitney and I teach Sunbeams together and it is a riot. Sunday the lesson was 'Heavenly Father and Jesus love me'. The manual said to go around the room and ask the kids to name one person that loves them and to say how that person shows their love for them. I got to the first little girl-Millie and I asked her the question. She pondered for a minute and then she said "everybody who knows me loves me". If only we all had that same attitude.
I took the kids to the park the other day because it warmed up to 45 degrees. There were kids there in shorts and short sleeve shirts and several kids without shoes. Oh how we love the sunshine. Funny how when it has been Summer and it is going into Fall, 45 degrees feels cold but when it has been Winter and we are coming back into Spring it feels nice and warm.
At church on Sunday the kids were being extra rowdy. I told them we were going to take a little walk because Heavenly Father had given us a nice, warm, sunny day and the same little girl had just come home from Hawaii and she said "we brought the sunshine back with us from Hawaii". I told her we really appreciated that.

How would it be if we all had such great self esteem!
