Affirmations

Our final meeting together this summer was all about middle school! We shared fears, questions, curiosities and excitements about starting 6th grade. It was a special time to listen, be there, and encourage each other. At a time of such change and things to wonder about we focused on the importance of staying true to ourselves and to not lose sight of being our genuine, smart, funny, intelligent, athletic, musical, quiet, loud, funny, calm, outgoing, caring selves.

For their lockers, we made "affirmation" boards. We picked at least 5 positive statements to include on our boards, that would encourage and inspire us while at school.

Everyone worked hard to create a board that was unique and just right for them!

Smiling, working and laughing together was half the fun!

It's hard to believe it's been 4 years since our very first book club together.

 These girls have grown from adorable little 2nd graders to beautiful young ladies!

What a great girl's summer book club we've had!
