There are times my friends take my breath away. Not just in what they say, but in who they are.

Here. Go see.

We have two transgender kids at our school, and I watch carefully to make sure they’re treated kindly and gently. They are, by teachers, staff, and other children.

And, most of all, by their parents.

Today I’m grateful for parents who live with grace, and allow their children the space, respect, and love to be themselves.
