Kindness that Begins a Friendship

"The only way to have a friend is to be one."
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Recently, I was in the car with my children and a classmate of my daughter's.  I overheard our guest compliment my son on a drawing that he shared with her, which reminded me of how kind this girl is.  When my daughter began at her new school, it was this girl who was the first to reach out and invite my daughter to her house.  Three years later, they are still friends and I suspect that they will probably be friends for life.  Having gotten to know this girl, it does not surprise that it was her kindness that began the friendship.
