On Monday we will be celebrating Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday. Today at school Amaya's teacher talked with the class about Martin Luther King Jr. and his dream. She asked the class about their dreams for their own lives and their futures. Mrs. Griessbach told Josh that when Amaya told her about her dream she got teary eyed because Amaya was so articulate, and sweet. Amaya told Mrs. Griessbach that when she grows up she wants to be a surgeon like Dr. Nelson so that she can help kids like her. "Kids with short legs, even shorter than mine." I'm very proud of Amaya; she is a kind soul. And whether she ends up being a surgeon or not her heart is in the right place.
When Mrs. Griessbach asked the class to draw what their dream was, this is what Amaya drew. It's a picture of her and her friend Mason. He's her other dream.
