Today is World Kindness Day, and this non-profit organization from Dripping Springs shows why kindness is so important β today and every day.
The Peyton Heart Project was created in June of 2015 after being inspired by several stories, including that of a 13-year-old boy named Peyton James who died by suicide in 2014. Peyton was a middle school student from Georgetown, Texas.
This is his and his family's story. See how you can make a difference.

Are you new to the area? Is your child starting school? Is your child struggling to make friends?
It is hard for parents to watch their child having trouble making friends in the classroom, on the playground, in the neighborhood, or any other place children their age mix and mingle.
Parents feel their childrenβs feelings and want them to be happy. However, trying to solve their childrenβs problems for them is ultimately not a solution. Instead, parents may guide their children in the right direction and get involved by talking with their child's teacher, read books about friendship, model behavior, try role play, or give them tools that may help them find their way and build relationships and friendships on their own.
Here is a one tool that will help your child break the ice at and outside of school.
