Her inability to love and appreciate herself fully
/
I just got a call from a friend who had been helping out with the first grade thanksgiving party at the school.
She had been sitting with a group of children doing an activity, and Hannah was part of her group. The children were taking turns sharing things they were thankful for.
Some were thankful for their families. Some were thankful for their homes. One or two kids were even thankful for school.
It came time for Hannah to share something she was thankful for. Guess what my sweet, selfless girl said?
"I am thankful for myself."
Um, yeah.
Healthy self-esteem, anyone?
