Words of Inspiration and Motivation
A quote from Eunice Kennedy Shriver,
"You are the stars and the world is watching you. By your presence you send a message to every village, every city, every nation. A message of hope. A message of victory:
The right to play on any playing field?
You have earned it.
The right to study in any school?
You have earned it.
The right to hold a job?
You have earned it?
The right to be anyone's neighbor?
You have earned it."
http://www.eunicekennedyshriver.org/articles/article/85
A quote from Lyndon B. Johnson
“Until justice is blind to color, until education is unaware of race, until opportunity is unconcerned with the color of men’s skins, emancipation will be a proclamation but not a fact.”
https://uschs.wordpress.com/2013/05/31/lyndon-johnsons-1963-memorial-day-address/
A quote from Louise Derman-Sparks
"The passion to create a safer and more just world for all kids."
A quote from Sandy Escobido
"We as professionals in the early childhood field have an opportunity to shape a child's life for the better."

Personal Childhood Web
I have had many people in my life who have supported me and helped me to achieve some of my goals, but I am only going to talk about five of them.
My Mother:
She was always a person who I could count on to do anything for me if I needed it, not always if I just wanted it haha. She was loving, king, understanding, yet stern, and would always lend a listening ear. I knew that I had a confidant in my mother, and that she would always give me sound advice. She helped me with my homework, helped me to learn things that I would need in adulthood, and was always there to help me learn from my mistakes. She was hard on me, but it helped mold me into the person I am today. She taught me that anything worth having is not easy to obtain, and she pushed me to be a fighter.
My Brother:
My brother has always been there for me. He is seven years older than me, and he has a mental disability, but he does not let that make him miss out on life. He could always help me to see the good in things, and he would always be a listening ear. I have always felt at ease with him, I knew we could sing out loud together, and he would never ask me to stop no matter how bad it was! He would always see the good in me, even when I could not see it in myself.
My Father:
My father has always been a supportive man. He believes I can do anything I want to do, even if its ridiculous! Since my father was in the Navy, he also believed in the value of hard work, and would always push me to do better. Disappointing my dad always seemed liked the worst thing in the world, because of the way he would look at you or the things he would say. It's always worse to disappoint someone who would say, "I know you can do better," or "This is disappointing, what happened," instead of yelling at you! So I always strived to do the best I could, to make my dad proud!
My Grandmother:
My grandmother is not your average cooking baking grandmother. My grandmother was a hard woman from the south. She smokes cigarettes, drinks bourbon, and is always talking about weapons, haha. She is good natured and fun though, and she always told me that she would protect her grandkids to the end. She taught me to never give up, and to keep fighting for what's right, and for what want, within reason! She is a woman that never gives up, has been through a lot, and will tell you as much. I have always wanted to be as strong as my grandmother, and as wise.
My Uncle:
My uncle is hard working, and knows everything, about everything lol! I always admired how he could keep peoples attention during a conversation, and always have people laughing. Mu uncle taught me how to be a hard worker, and the value of working. He also taught me how to drive :)
He taught me to work for what I want, and what I need. He taught me how to build desks, bookshelves, ect. and always with a smile and a, "that's easy babe!" even if it wasn't easy! He always has a smile, and will help me with anything that I need help with!
I have had a lot of great role models in my life, and they have all taught me how to be hard working, never to give up, and to always push myself to the max!
