Autumn completed a very big goal this week: She created handmade signs of hope, positivity, and encouragement for each one of her classmates in the 6th grade (325 in all) and with the help of a small group of friends hung them on the lockers of each of her classmates to find the next day when they came to school. It was a covert operation and no one except these few friends know that she is the one behind the whole thing, but just look at these faces!
Here are pictures of just some of the signs that she made--each one unique! I loved hearing the girls squeal when reading each sign and then hearing them get even more excited discussing some special kid who might appreciate that particular message the most.
Autumn is a special and hardworking girl, and I'm really impressed she was able to get this done with very little help from us! Her project is closely tied with the old value of "individual worth". She hopes that her signs help others understand that they are loved and valued in her school and in this world!
It has been some time since I last visited your blog. It's wonderful to see you in your children. You are amazing.
