Fuzzy Peach Candies

Value: Sharing I went to take the last of the Maynard fuzzy peach candies out of the sack between the front seats and my husband’s hand was in the sack first. He let out a laugh as if to say, “I got the last one!” I then reached in and found one more candy. “Ha Ha,” I replied, “I got the last one.” We laughed talking about looking out for ourselves in getting our fair share, but really when it comes down to it, we really look out for each other. We take care of each other and we share. That is really what our friendship is all about. Each of us grew up as one of six siblings and as parents of six children, we always had to share and tried to teach our children to share, i.e., the box of candy, the bike in the yard, the chores of mowing the lawn or feeding the dog. We all took our turns and tried to share just like dividing up a dessert. We also honored someone’s piece of the dessert and protected it until they were able to eat it later. That is part of sharing. Value Sharing!
