Each week, in the Wednesday paper, there's a section called Write On: Young Voices Speak! Local teachers mail in student responses to pre-selected questions.
Clay has been hoping to have his answer written up since the end of last school year.
This past Wednesday, the question was: World Kindness Week is the second week in November. What are some ways you can show kindness toward others?
Clay wrote: "I would not litter, because world kindness week sounds like I should be kind to the world. I would recycle paper, coke cans, and bottles. I would listen to my parents. I could give money to charity. I could help my brother (kindergartener) with his homework."
He's got a little bit of the tree hugger in him.
When he realized he was in the paper, he started wondering if he's now famous. It's funny and sweet.
Spencer had a dental appointment on Friday and the receptionist said she saw Clay's write up. When I told Clay that, he said, "I guess I really am worldwide."
And there is no way I'm bursting that little bubble.
