You must be very proud of your daughter, and her kids are lucky to have her!

I am so very proud of her... particularly her dedication to a very tough dmeanding job...
The "funny" thing about her choice to be a teacher is that when she was in high school, she had some really good teachers who were great role models for her, but when she told them that this is what she wanted to do with her life, they were shocked, and told her she could be anything she wanted to be (Dr., Lawyer, Indian Chief), and sorta discouraged her from going into teaching. No money, No prestige, etc...
We told her that money and prestige do not a happy life make, and that she had to follow her heart. We are glad she did, and take great pleasure in thinking about how many young lives she will touch and influence in a positive direction.
