Alexys' Kindergarten Graduation

I cannot even begin to put my emotions into words.

I am so proud of Alexys. She made it through a very tough year. She has loved school. She has been reading and doing addition and subtractions since the first of the year. That has been a blessing because she had many emotional breakdowns that caused her to miss many many days of school. With each situation that came up, we figured it out, she agreed to face her fears, and she tried again. (See here if you have no clue what I am talking about) As a mother, it was hard to send her off each day. She was going to a place where I wasn't there to protect her and comfort her and so I am so thankful for those who took the extra effort to care about her and give her that needed feeling of security. She is a whole different girl now, thanks to her counselor, her teacher, and her vice principal, all amazing women. I feel so blessed that they were in her life this year and able to guide her and love her through each set back.

She came, she conquered, and she won!!
