One morning at the family dinner table, Hazel and Finn talked about “writing thank-you notes.” Good manners show respect, and good habits make every day easier. Hazel said, “Let's try it today!” Finn smiled and said, “Let's do it together.” By the end of the day, they both felt proud of the healthy choice they made.
