Little Did I Know: Brown

1:18 PM

Today Braeden brought his teacher her Christmas gift. He gave her a mug, hot cocoa, a Barnes and Noble gift card, and then I also made her one of my necklaces. I let him pick out which beads he wanted one day while we were out. He chose brown colored glass pearls. I made two necklaces with them, one with a brown ribbon and the pearls, and one with small black beads between the brown pearls and black ribbon. He chose to give the one with brown beads and brown ribbon.

Today I received an email from his teacher with this note included...

Did Braeden tell you why I like brown? He was sitting by me at rest time one day ( go figure) and he was really focused on his skin color. He kept telling me that I was peach and he was brown. I pointed out to him that everyone has a different color skin and even 2 people who are peach or brown are different shades. We’re all unique. Anyway while he was thinking that through I told him that I like brown the best. He liked that.

I'm sure that Braeden remembered this while we were shopping for beads and chose this necklace because of this former conversation... love that kid!

What you should know about HIV

-HIV can NOT be spread through casual/household contact. HIV is not spread through hugging, kissing, shaking hands, sharing toys, sneezing, coughing, sharing food, sharing drinks, bathing, swimming or any other casual way. It has been proven that HIV and AIDS can only be spread through sexual contact, birth, breastfeeding and blood to blood contact (such as sharing needles). - HIV is now considered a chronic but manageable disease. With treatment, people who are HIV+ can live indefinitely without developing AIDS and can live long and full lives. - People who are HIV+ deserve to be treated with love, respect, support and acceptance as all people do. Additional information on transmission of HIV can be found on the Center for Disease Control website: http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/resources

Little Did I Know

Little did I know that the road would be so rocky
Little did I know that the trip would take so long
Little did I know that my heart could hurt so much
Little did I know that God is never wrong

Little did I know that love could be so powerful
Little did I know that a dream so far could go
Little did I know that God would place the right ones
Little did I know that my heart, so large, could grow

Little did I know that a dream has it’s own timing
Little did I know that this day would finally come
Little did I know that four souls would be sent to guide me
Little did I know that they would choose to call me mom

But God knew all along and He had a plan to follow
God knew all along that my dream would soon come true
God knew all along that we five should be together
God knew all along that I’d share it all with you

Brown
