The Kindness of New Friends

"Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity."
― Khalil Gibran

One of my daughters began a new school this year and I have been pleasantly surprised at the warm welcome she has received from the girls in the class.  One girl in particular has been extraordinarily kind to my daughter.  She has invited her to her house several times.  This afternoon, she invited my daughter over for a play date with several other girls for an afternoon of Valentine-related crafts and fun.  When my daughter left, it was raining, but that did not stop her new friend from running through the rain to give my daughter a little box of candy that she had left behind.
