Cue all the emotional tears today!! We sat around in a circle and shared our favorite moments of the year with hugs, tears, explosions of laughter, and joy. Oh how each child has GROWN! In more ways than one.. academically, yes, but also emotionally, in their friendships, in their confidence, and so much more. This is SUCH a special group of kids I will remember forever.

My mother Lisa has been a florist for the past 16 years. She worked in a local shop as a designer and a few years ago she started her own business, Garden of Grace, out of her home! She does weddings, events, and workshops, and she brought a mini-workshop to 2K this week! The kids learned about a few types of flowers, what a florist does, and some techniques with arranging flowers! My mother and I's goal was to make each mother or special mom-like figure in each child's life feel loved and special. You all are incredible and pour so much into these children and we are so thankful for all you do! It truly takes a village to raise each and every child. MATH
