ACSI SPEECH MEET!

Photobucket

I am SOOO PROUD of my Hannah-Banana!! She competed today in the Association for Christian Schools International Regional Speech Meet. She scored the HIGHEST score possible for her division!! She received a "Superior" rating. She was amazing!! She recited a passage of scriptures from Colossians, and then explained in her own words what it meant to her. She has worked very hard on preparing for today. I have shared before how she is not fond of public speaking, but she is becoming quite proficient at it! She is learning a skill I wish I had learned as a child. I am so proud of her for overcoming her fears and facing her challenge head on and overcoming her obstacles! Way to go Hannah!! We love you and are so very proud of you!

I am so proud of you and prayed for her all through the day! The biggest reward is that she faced that most difficult thing and came out on the other side, and with a ribbon! Great life lessons. Give her a hug for me.
