Sunrae and Friends: JUST BECAUSE

Have you ever recieved a present, a hug or smile from someone and you didn't know why.

I call it a "JUST BECAUSE". A "JUST BECAUSE" is really a surprise, because you must have behaved in a way that made that person feel special enough to give you something unexpectedly (surprise).

Yesterday I got two "JUST BECAUSE" hugs from two people I never got hugs from before. Today I got some special vegetables I really wanted from someone who reads my blog. Ta Da!!!
"JUST BECASUE" happens all of the time.
They are sometimes small and sometimes big. They come in different shapes and colors. The may happen at your house, they may happen on a field trip with your class. So become a "JUST BECAUSE" detective (pay attention) and be ready to feel really GREAT! and of course SURPRISED!!!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY

Today I will inspire others by just being "ME".
