After learning of the passing of his father-in-law, Price Lawrence couldn't hide his emotions from his young students. One of his students made an incredible gesture to help pay for the funeral and the compassion from this student is something that everyone can take and learn from.
"This morning, during first period, my kids could tell that I was a little off. When they asked why I wasn’t acting normal I explained to them that my wife’s father had passed away this weekend and that I was worried about her. They all said they were sorry and then we got started on our work. While standing at my door giving hugs and high fives at dismissal to 2nd period one little girl put something in my hand. She told me “This is for your wife. I know it was real expensive when my daddy died and I don’t really want ice cream today anyways.” I wish the world would pay more attention to children. We could learn a lot from them."
