Mom told Little Sister Alexis 3 times if she was sleepy, go to bed. She said she wasn't sleepy and this is how she fell asleep in the living room! LOL!

"A BLACK BELT IS A WHITE BELT THAT NEVER QUITS"





Well, the road back to normal is really looking good so far and it was apparent for the first time at AmeriKick-Andorra since March 2020. Parent seating has returned, so we can finally sit in the studio and watch TBW during class again. I was never so excited about taking a pic of 'chairs' before in my life! LOL! Also, this was the first time we saw the whole class together since last year because some students continued via ZOOM after the studio opened. Even though masks are optional for vaccinated parents and students now, there were definitely more masks than not today. Hopefully, Bring-A-Buddy days will return soon so his sisters can go with him from time to time!

📣 A Big Shout Out...



To all of the kids who didn’t win an award, make honor roll, and barely made it through the school year. A big hug to the moms, dads, grandparents, foster parents, and caregivers who stuck by them as they maneuvered their way through the school year. For the kids who didn’t get invited to the prom, didn’t get a scholarship to college, and perhaps have to go straight to work out of high school... they are worthy of a pat on the back and a post uplifting how AMAZING they are too. Some kids have to work twice as hard as others just to get a C and their achievements should receive recognition as well. Do not forget about these kids. Creativity, generousity, and kindness are attributes that sadly don’t get the accolades they deserve. Please copy, paste, repost, and share for them!

⏳ #FBF Proud Gmom



My grandson just completed his first full year of high school virtually. He has come a long way, and it's hard to believe he's a 15yo teenager and 10th grader now. Like so many other students who graduated from middle school in 2020, he had a virtual ceremony last June because of the pandemic after completing grades K-8. Then, he met the challenge and handled the transition of starting high school online. He did it well and kept it moving. I pray, GOD willing, that he will finally be able to start his in-person high school experience in September. Keep up the good work, TBW... Grammy loves you and GOD loves you more!

BROTHERS & SISTERS


Siblings are the people we practice on. They teach us about
caring, cooperation, fairness, and kindness the hard way!





PRAYER FOR CHILDREN

Lord Jesus, You were never too busy to pay attention to children, for You dearly loved them. We are happy that you love us and that You have time to listen to our prayers and to answer them. We thank You that You have made us Your own. As we get bigger and stronger every day, help us to grow stronger in our faith too. Bless our parents, whom You have given to us, and help us to respect and obey them, to love and treasure them. Forgive us when we disobey them or when we fail to respect them as Your previous gifts to us. Give them the wisdom to train us in the good and right way. Bless our home and every member of our family with a strong faith in You and true love to one another. Teach us to be kind, unselfish, helpful, cheerful, forgiving, and faithful in our duties. Help us to be like You, Lord Jesus, to grow in wisdom and character and in favor with God and all people. Send Your angels to watch over us, to keep us from all harm of body and soul. Bless us, and make us a blessing to our family and friends. Amen.



Thank you for stopping by and come back again!
