Thank you to all of you for your encouraging words! My girl did a wonderful job with her speech – both with the writing and the delivery. And…she won the election! While she is very excited about winning, she is also a little sad for her opponent – a good friend from school. It seems that student elections are a little bittersweet.

I know that most parents think their kids are the most amazing and beautiful in the world.
The truth: MY kids are. =)
Take this one, for example. She is so gorgeous, smart, kind and creative. AND…she is running for Student Council this week. This lady has worked so hard at creating her campaign posters and working on her speech. Soon she will be giving her speech in front the of the school – she is very nervous but is so brave.
Pray for her as she campaigns, would you?
And….pray for me as I listen to her give her speech…that if (okay..it’s when) I cry that I do so quietly and that I don’t chew off my own hand from being so nervous for her =).
Thank you, everyone!
Congratulations on the win! This will be great experience for her!
Wow! Congratulations!!!
Thank you to everyone for your encouragement!
I am so proud of this one! I got to hear her speech (on the phone) and it was well-written, concise and persuasive. I would have voted for her! And evidently the student body agreed with me because she won!!!!
she is beautiful. and brave. I love the quote from Hellen Keller, “life is either daring adventure, or nothing.” prayers for you both!
Good for her! That’s a nice picture of her too.
You have my vote! Go get’em girl! I’m proud of you!
Oh man,
This girl could make mute animals talk she is soooooooooooo georgous. It must run in the family and I have heard that her parents are pretty decent so I am not suprised that she is such an awesome kid. Will be praying for Gods will on the
outcome of her campaign. She doesnt have a tanning bed does she?
