The “Good News Call” today goes out to Braxton Sohler. Braxton asks to help me with big and small tasks every day. He notices little things I need help with and watches for opportunities to assist me and others. His teacher notices that he is always willing to help her and his classmates with tasks that need to be done in his Kindergarten classroom. He sees someone who needs help, and he happily offers to help them. He is truly an example of our December Shout Out, "Helpful Hands". Thanks for being a great helper, Braxton!
