Proud Mama

At my Son's school they encourages good character in their student,and every marking period two students who have shown above and beyond in  Caring and Kindness to their classmates are honored!

While looking through my Son's backpack after 
school I noticed an award paper in his
take home folder:

GREAT JOB HAYDEN!!

It's a #GuysandDolls Weekend

Here's our DOLL =)

OUR STAR!!!

Do your / Did your kids get involved in the school musicals...I always loved them buy never tried out...so glad my daughter is NOT SO SHY. Guys and Dolls was one I'd not seen before...so it was fun-they did a Jr version so the "night-club" and gambling was at a minimum.
 I'm still keeping  my fingers crossed for My Fair Lady and Grease my two  classic favs!
Do you have a favorite Musical?

#PROUDMOM Never Give Up-- Inspirational Quotes

Heading into her 8th year of gymnastics--my daughter is thinking of giving it up. While I know she really enjoys it I think she feels discouraged  because she's not learning fast enough--I had to bring out this post I did a few years back when she was having issues with the balance beam.


While watching my daughter doing the balance beam -this is the piece of equipment that made her quite 1/2 way through last year- "ITS JUST TOOOO HIGH"  I was reminded of some great inspirational quotes.


"Once you choose hope, anything's possible." - Christopher Reeve

"When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on." - Franklin D. Roosevelt

So proud of her... she may have let her fear get her for a minute...but she tried again !! 

"Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all." - Dale Carnegie



After reading this post  my daughter realized things make take time but don't give up,try again, it will come to you! How do you encourage you children??
