The Dr. Seuss Quote for today - Why fit in . . .

The Dr. Seuss Quote for today . . . "Why fit in when you were born to stand out!" I love this for grandmas . . . we can be grandmas who stand out! I know I don't want to be a "ho-hum" grandma. I want my grands to believe their grandma is the best ever! As you go through this day, take a moment to remember, while the temptation to "fit in" may be strong, each person is a unique and amazing individual, and is able to stand out just as they are!

Help those you love to know how they are able to change the world by being themselves and by choosing not to fade away and "fit in" - they absolutely can stand out! 

Challenge them to be people who "stand out" for how they care for and about others, then help them think of something they could do to brighten someone else's day. Maybe if there is a child at school who tends to be alone, they could make a point of including them in the things they do - sit with them at lunch, talk and play with them at recess, etc. Or, maybe they could draw a picture for someone who has taken care of them or make cards for their teacher - encourage them to think of something special they will do to stand out and encourage others.
