Kindness By Charlotte Gutzmer

[cgutzmer]

My 11 year old daughter wrote this and I thought it worth sharing

Kindness
Kindness is everywhere,
Kindness is beautiful,
a flower blooming in spring.

Kindness is sweet,
fresh like honey from the honeybees.

Kindness is soft,
fluffy clouds kissing your skin.

Kindness is fragile,
kindness isn't always easy,
but kindness is always right.

Kindness is comforting,
motivating,
helpful.

Kindness gives us courage,
kindness is the key to our heart,
Kindness is love.

Chris -

You have a very talented little girl, and most importantly, one who is happy. You've done a good job as a father.

Very nice indeed - if we all show some of this, the world will be a much happier place to be. Top marks to your daughter

That's the difference between an 11 year old girl and an 11 year old boy. All my son comes up with are Butt Jokes.

Very nice. But she must get this from Mum and Dad as without your guidance it might be titled "Obnoxious by Charly" I think it should be the Paper Modelers Mantra.

Thanks for sharing this with us Chris. I would be proud to have such a wonderful person in my life so when can my wife and I adopt her.

All the best mate.

Cheers
Jim
