Thank you to all of you who generously contributed to helping us on this journey of discovery. We couldn't have done it without the support and resources that you all so generously shared. You gave your time, your experiences, and shared your heart. Most of all you understood when others couldn't.
Just wanted to share my family's good news. My daughter was just awarded the 2014 Allegra Ford Scholarship.
With all the challenges we face day to day trying to help meet each student at their need, it is nice to be able to reflect on uplifting outcomes. I hope our story's outcome brightens your day and encourages all of you to continue doing all that you do here at MillerMom!

She is going to a local community college to become a Veterinary Technician. She still volunteers and does equine therapy with kids with special needs and has been doing some reading tutoring. She wanted to stay local to be able to continue her work with the kids. She finds it very rewarding.

So happy for her!! DS's "girl friend" (I think that is what she is to him!!) works at a Vet's office and is also hoping to continue her education to become a Vet Tech. What a great opportunity to combine a passion with a career! Congratulations on the scholarship - well deserved and very impressive!!!!
How satisfying to read good news and to learn how our kids have grown, matured and overcome. We could pool our stories and write a good book. I guess in some ways, we've done that over the years with our posts!
