On the first day of school, Coleman took a picture he had of Jesus Christ and he put it in his pocket. He told me what he had done and said, "This way, if I feel nervous, or people are being mean to me or if I'm sad or scared at all - I'll be ok. I'll just reach in to my pocket, feel the picture and think 'Oh Yeah, I've got Jesus in my pocket. He's always with me so everything is ok."
After school, when he got home, he pulled the picture out of his pocket, grinned and said, "It worked. I think I'm going to do it every day." I love that kid.
