There is a little girl in my second grade class this year who is a foster kid. She is a sweetie but struggles with self assurance and speaking out confidently. We were making Mother’s day projects in class last week and she asked me if she could take hers home early, “because I only get to see my mom on Wednesdays”, meaning her weekly visit to her in jail. It broke my heart.
