When I entered 5th grade, it was my 5th school change since kindergarten began. I was alone in a sea of kids I didn't know... again.
My teachers were kind, understanding even... I still panicked that their cursive methods didn't match what I'd learned, and I hadn't even started learning the math they were already into.
I was overwhelmed, and the tears came.
This is how I earned a new nickname for the rest of the schoolyear - Crybaby.
The kids who I had hoped to befriend turned on me in a moment... such acute pain.
I realize now that from that time on, I tried very hard to not be caught seen crying unless I was around someone safe, and even then, only when it would be considered acceptable.
Now I know, though, that being moved to tears is part of how God made me. It's alright. I'm alright. And I'm not afraid for you to see me cry anymore.
for Self Portrait Challenge's October theme - Fears
My friend Stephanie's grandmother was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. In her honor, Stephanie has decided to run in the Marathon For a Cure, and needs to raise $1,100.
I am trying to help her raise the needed funds with a fun, pink design! It's also (appropriately) Breast Cancer Awareness month in October, so I felt this was the right time to help her out! Stephanie's daughter Izzy, is my model for this listing.
100% of the list price of this skirt will be going to support Stephanie's running in her grandmother's honor - your generous support is appreciated!
So here it is:
Pink - For a Cure!
