It's true that just as laughter is infectious - especially a child's - so too are generosity, kindness, and joy. <br /><br />Thank you for taking the time to visit Just Show up, Tim!Maureen Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12575825605911662634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5304286238611054455.post-36797641376397216212009-07-17T14:33:20.497-04:002009-07-17T14:33:20.497-04:00In the airport the other day I watching as a mothe...In the airport the other day I watching as a mother played with a child who had numerous disabiliities. The child's laugh was truly infectious; eventually smiles appeared on many faces, changing the drab atmosphere. Let us hope, that as others set an example there will be an infectious result.Timnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5304286238611054455.post-85448497470099458182009-07-17T13:15:15.167-04:002009-07-17T13:15:15.167-04:00Patricia, That's wonderful that you take the t...Patricia, That's wonderful that you take the time to work with special needs students, and visit with seniors. You're right - it's definitely a two-way street when you volunteer. <br /><br />Thank you, Holly, for visiting our blog and giving feedback. Yes, it certainly makes a difference, doesn't it, when you are included in everything a community has to offer? You said it best: "Life can be a lonely place when people look at you as different and we have the same feelings as anyone else." <br /><br />Suzanne, Macaroni and cheese is one of my favourite meals, too! As a mom, I enjoy cooking with my daughter, for as you said, it's a great bonding experience. If you wouldn't mind, could you please send us the recipe for your "delicious, creamy" macaroni and cheese? <br /><br />We're always looking for recipes from our readers to post in the Recipes section, and this sounds like a winner!Maureen Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12575825605911662634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5304286238611054455.post-15853879370294884762009-07-17T10:59:50.446-04:002009-07-17T10:59:50.446-04:00What I love to do with my mom is make homemade mac...What I love to do with my mom is make homemade macaroni & cheese!

I know when I work with my special needs students or when I take time to visit the seniors I bring a smile to their faces and get the same in return. If we would all give a little of ourselves the world would be a much better place. Smile and give a kind word to someone today. You will see the difference you make in someones life.Patricianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5304286238611054455.post-3130284514358571642009-07-16T08:05:36.461-04:002009-07-16T08:05:36.461-04:00Thanks for your insightful comment, Don.
