Caught in the Act of Good Parenting!
This is an exciting new series of articles based on witnessing acts of good parenting. Unfortunately there
are many instances of just the opposite. We read about it everyday and witness it ourselves at the grocery store, soccer
field, and at the park. Hopefully we can find those parents who 'get it right', those parents who actually parent.
Please read on.
The Best
Places to Find a
Friendly
Smile and Kind Treatment
One of the reoccurring themes in most of the workshops and classes I present is recognition. And, why not? I teach people to be nice
to each other. Recognizing the kindnesses of others is essential for the perpetuation
of kind behavior.
So along that line of thought, I decided that what we
need is a little recognition of the kindnesses and the wonderful smiles I am greeted with on a daily basis. Here I would like to share with you the best places, in my humble opinion, to find a friendly smile and
a kind behavior. Of course, you are free to share your experiences with us also.
Hey, the more the merrier!
Below you will notice that I found Friendly Smiles & Kind Treatment
in my very own back yard--well, almost.
The Nugget Market on Covell in Davis is comfortable and excites the senses. The people are a treat as well.
