When they are young, show
them compassion.
As they grow, teach them to be
compassionate.
Teach them to love creatures and
people,
and they'll go on to
teach others the same.
Well, I'm officially a mama of a FIRST
grader...and I can hardly believe it! Today, she walked up through the DE
school doors and straight into Mrs. Ferguson's first grade classroom!

At six and a half years old, this lil' spit fire is
excited to make new friends and show her teacher just how smart she is.
She continues to want to be a veterinarian when she grows up...although,
the animals have changed. She no longer wants to help the sick cats and
dogs. She now wants to work on all the zoo animals: elephants,
giraffes, leopards, monkeys, etc. :)

throughout the year.
