Hooray for Sarah!

Sarah's grades came in the mail today. She worked tirelessly the last few weeks of school to get everything caught up and all her past make-up work in. (With all the zeroes, she had some pretty poor grades for a while.) And guess what? All those hours of hard work and tears really paid off! She pulled out a 3.2 GPA this semester, with more than 30 absences. We're all so thrilled. I know she felt pretty crummy most of the time this year and with the emotional and spiritual struggles that followed the physical ones, I can't imagine the inner fortitude she must have gathered to do so well. (The Parent Push doesn't very often get those results, without the teenager caring quite a lot, too.) So, hooray for Sarah! We're so very proud of her!
