You GO, Girl!

Paige is Most Valuable Kindergartener this week.  As such she gets to decorate a paper jersey with pictures describing herself.  Amongst the pictures were a baby picture and Chinese card indicating she was born in China.

Paige came home and told me that her class asked lots of questions about her birth in China, why she didn't live with her "China Mom" and "China Dad" anymore, where they are, etc.  Paige was so matter of fact in her answers, "they couldn't keep me so they left me when I was a tiny, tiny baby with people who would take care of me." and "my China Mom and Dad left a note with me because they loved me and wanted me to be happy."

When a boy in her class today told her that "China is dumb and stupid and bad."  Paige turned to him and said, "NO IT'S NOT!"  Apparently he pestered her quite a bit and she just kept repeating herself.  He ended up in time out and she ended up being voted (by me) to be the most valuable strong, confident little lady of the week

You go, Paige!  Be who you are and be proud of your life.  It's what makes you so wonderful.  I'm so proud to be your Forever Mom.
