We’ve been going to the high school basketball games because our son, James plays. It has been so much fun! He will be a senior next year, but we might just be hooked and keep going to the games even after he graduates. I love seeing all the kids having fun and the teachers having fun with them!
El Reno Acts of Kindness Day is right around the corner. On Wednesday, Feb. 19, put kindness at the top of your to-do list.
It’s a simple concept, just do something nice for someone else. It can be as simple as opening a door for someone, saying hello to a stranger, picking up a piece of trash, sending flowers to someone anonymously. You get the idea.
