So tonight our Child & Family Services Unit put on a ceremony to recognize Child Abuse Prevention. The little ceremony is always moderately small but it's always so sweet. We have the head start kids come and sing and they are just soooooo adorable! We have each child hold a candle in remembrance of the children that lost their lives the past year due to abuse/neglect. This year, Virginia had 45 fatalities. It breaks your heart to see so many beautiful and innocent children holding these candles in remembrance. It just makes you really want to work hard to work with families to make sure situations don't arise to this type of conclusion. Anyways....April is Child Abuse Prevention month. So try to make a difference in your community any way you can. If you see something that puts a child in danger, do your best to work with the family to make sure that situation stops and they get the support they need. Even if that means calling in professionals. Anything to keep seeing these beautiful children smiles!!
On other news.....My BABY furniture is coming in tomorrow!! YAY YAY YAY!!! SUPER EXCITED!! It's getting more real. I'm going to have little Norah here with me soon!
