Finishing Well

Today is the last day of school, and while the tests have all been written and the report cards completed, they still have this one day to finish well.  My prayer today, Lord Jesus, is that each one of my children and those in their schools would leave good last impressions on their classmates and teachers.  May they choose to treat each other well, and bite back thoughtless comments.  May they all go home today with a smile on their faces because someone was kind rather than rude, because they were smiled at rather than pushed or ignored.  May they go into summer with hopeful thoughts about school next year, not just relieved that they get a break from it.
