Katie ended her junior year of high school today. I couldn't have been more proud of her with her math grade. She had been failing most of the year...a subject that totally frustrates her (as it does me). Our brains just don' t think "math". I knew if she just applied herself she could make it, pull through, but for most part she didn't care to apply herself. Not saying she didn't care, I think she truely did. It was more of a feeling of "lost" and not knowing where to begin to understand. We found a wonderful tutor for her, who believed in her and he helped her see the light at the end of the tunnel. My prayer was that Katie would find the confience in herself, believe in herself enough to pass the class and she did...with a C!! I cried when she told me she had passed because I knew she had found the rope that had pulled her up the mountain to the top...the rope being her belief in herself. So now as we begin summer school, I think she'll end strong in math...just knowing she won't have to have math her senior year...should help her a lot.
I love you Katie. You are my sunshine. You are my joy. You make me laugh. May you have a wonderful senior year, the best one yet of your high school career. I'm your biggest fan!! Enjoy summer!
