There are only two days left of Project Grow! It has been a HARD year. Literally everything that could have gone wrong and any little thing that could have sprung up to cause unexpected problems for us... has. But even so, I am so glad I stuck it out for a second year.
I love this program, this initiative to get kids who, at age 3, are already lightyears behind their peers, ready for Kindergarten so that they stand a real chance at surviving in the academic world. I love this program, this environment where real, trusting, one-on-one relationships are fostered and encouraged. I've loved my time with Project Grow and will forever cherish the memories made this year and last.
Here, Jamarion and I are perfecting our hand shake, which by the way goes a little like this... 7 high-fives, a salute, and then "deuces!!" I clearly hadn't quite mastered it at this point. Good thing I still have two more days with this little guy.
