1st Day Success

All the preparation for school pays off when both my girls come home with 1st day of school success stories.

Mariah reconnected with best girlfriends from her middle school years in classes that she hasn't had with them for years. A group picture was taken just like they did in 6th grade.

Brooke made a new friend, then was a friend. Brooke said she sitting in the cafeteria having lunch with the popular kids when she saw a girl who doesn't have many friends sitting at a lunch table by herself.  So she grabbed her lunch went and sat down beside her so she wasn't alone and asked the girl how her summer was.

My success for my daughter's isn't in their academic successes, rather their character and integrity. They each have their own unique strengths in life, but they are equals when it comes to being kind to others.
