It is a dreadfully dreary day today. I think it's been raining for 12 hours and there is no end in sight. To compound my misery, I have a sore throat, cold, and my body aches all over. I have zero energy, but am still trying to clean the house for the weekend. Imagine my surprise when I went into my middle child's room and found this hand written song on her keyboard:"Confidence Is The Key"
verse 1: Your inner star shines very bright
As bright as the sky shines at night
Just stay true to who you are
And always remember, you're a star
verse 2: Follow your dreams and don't give up
Even if you feel a big road bump
You're awesome, you're great
Yourself you can never hate
verse 3: Your best is all that you can do
So let the spotlight shine on you
(unfinished)
Chorus: Confidence is the key
Confidence is the key
Try your best and you will see
That confidence is the key
Unfortunately, she has seen her share of road bumps, having autism. Honestly though, she is the joy of our lives and we can't imagine her any other way. I hope this song brightens your day as much as it did mine. Happy weekend, everyone.
aww, something you're teaching her is obviously sinking in. that must have given you such a warm and happy feelings. thanks for passing it on to the rest of us.
