Aubree received an award at school Friday for "Courage".
When she heard she would be receiving the award, she asked what does courage mean?
I started to rattle off the usual things that we feel she personally lacks courage in, like, riding your bike w/o training wheels, going upstairs when the lights aren't on, trying new foods....etc.

I began to also think about things in my life that took courage and having the courage to do those things has blessed me and made my life better.
I'm glad that I had the courage to be a single mom, to take a chance on a guy completely different from me, to quit a profession I had known for 13 years and start a new job, and most importantly, try and teach my kids that sometimes the right choice isnt the most popular choice, and to choose the right takes courage.
