THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL. HE JUST OPENED ALOT OF KIDS MINDS AND THAT IS SOMETHING THEY WONT FORGET. THE SAD PART IS THAT THESE KIDS NEED TO HEAR THAT MESSAGE FROM HOME, AND MOST OF THEM WON'T. I TOO AM WHERE HE WAS BUT I AM ALWAYS LOOKING FOR NEW EVENTS AND OPPERTUNITIES TO OPEN MY KIDS MINDS AND LET THEM KNOW HOW MUCH OPPERTUNITY THERE IS FOR THEM DESPITE MY FINACIAL BURDENS AND LIVING SITUATIONS, BUT I AM NOT GOING TO WAIT AND HOPE SOMEONE TO COME ALONG AND HOPE MY KIDS PICK IT UP FROM SOMEWHERE ELSE. PARENTS HAVE TO REACH OUT TO THEIR KIDS!

Trina, absolutely right! Kids can hear this from speakers, from teachers, from clergy, from everyone around them, but if the DON'T hear it at home, if it is not demonstrated at home, if it is not encouraged at home, the kids won't succeed.

With your attitude and determination I know that you are a good mom and will provide an encouraging and successful environment for your children.

Daily Horoscope for November 9

Capricorn

The Moon passes through your eighth house, stirring up thoughts of the afterlife. You may or may not be at peace with the great cycle of life; if you're not at peace, it's time to review your beliefs and the feelings they are based upon. Witness the glory of the sunrise, flowers in bloom, children at play, old folks reminiscing and the serenity of the sunset for your answers.
