Speech Meet

Danissa recited a poem, "Wind on the Hill", at school today for her schools speech meet. She has been so timid and in tears over having to recite it and in front of her whole class, three judges, and parents. Today, she took a deep breath when they called her name, walked to the front, and did a fairly fantastic job considering...and she took home an "excellent" ribbon. 7 kids in her class got red excellent ribbons and 3 received "superior" ribbons. I'm just so proud of her...what a HUGE accomplishment for my little shy girl...!
