Love Languages

I joined this book group to read The Five Love Languages for Singles. The five languages are words of affirmation, quality time, acts of service, physical touch and gifts. At the end of the book there is a questionaire that will tell you your primary love language.

My top three scores were words of affirmation, quality time, and physical touch.

I figured words of affirmation and quality time would be the highest, and gifts would be on the low end.

Well. It turns out that gifts from my students make me feel loved.

I'm not sure why, but this year I've been blessed with kind hearted students. I've received bookmarks (both bought and handmade), candy, cookies, watercolored note cards, a Build-A-Bear (so cute!), an apple, chocolate from Canada, pictures drawn, a dish, and today a student gave me a Starbucks mug, biscotti, tea and peppermint hot cocoa.

I am blessed and my heart is warm. Don't know what I've done to deserve it, but receiving an unexpected gift, of any kind, is quite nice. Especially when it's from a child.
