Olivia on our way to school. That's my little teacher back there guiding me through life!
Today, I had the pleasure of taking my daughter Olivia to school like I do each morning. Even sitting here writing this makes me smile and so happy that I have such a wonderful gift that God has given me like her. I was on my way to drop her off to school and I was on the phone working and when I hung up, Olivia pipped up with some advice for work.
She proceeded to explain a better way for me to of handled that situation. She basically taught me how to listen better and to work with people and guys that work and help me better. I was so struck when she was talking to me. She was so clear and very tender and extremely helpful. I stopped and thanked God that he gave me this little girl that is tender enough to love people greater than I obviously knew how to.
To add to this story, I can’t leave out the fact that she insisted on me calling the person back that I was on the phone with and to apologize and to talk in a nicer manner to them. She said, they will listen better and do the work with a better attitude because they want to. Not because they are forced to. I was floored!!!!!
Thank you Olivia for teaching Daddy this morning. You mean more to me than I can ever express!
