Our son, who is in the third grade of elementary school this year, has been elected as the vice president of the class.
At the time of the election, my son put on a pledge: “If I were to become the vice president, I would make my class overflowing with love and consideration.” The child had deeply cared in her heart—the “language of a mother’s love,” which she had often heard and seen at home.
The day after his election, my son offered to take the poster “A Mother’s Languages of Love” from home to school. As a fulfillment of his promise, he asked the teacher if he could put the poster up in the classroom. I went to school a little nervous, but with my teacher’s permission, I returned joyfully.
The next day, we prepared a large poster and placed it directly on the classroom door. He captured it in photos and sent it to me as well. She sent me some photos of it, and it was impressive to see her striving to keep her promise to her friends.
He had only seemed so young until now, but I was very surprised at how he could think and act on his own. It was amazing and proud of them to express their thoughts boldly in front of their friends.
Although they are still young, I hope they will carry out their roles with a sense of responsibility and create a warm class with their friends.
