Emilia's teacher sent me an email yesterday to let me know that Emilia's friend G. had won a Lunch With The Teacher. She was allowed to select two classmates to share this prize with her and she chose Emilia and A. Miss M. told me that these three kids have a very special friendship and it warms my heart to see Emilia so relaxed and happy in the company of her first grade teacher and friends. It means so much to know that Emilia is accepted and valued by her peers, regardless of the challenges she may bring to social relationships. The children who can look beyond those challenges and recognize the spunky, funny, bright girl Emilia is are remarkable and their kindness will ripple through Emilia's life forevermore.
