Last week my daughter was at cheer camp, and miserable. So homesick. Tired from all of the hard cheer work. Tired because they stayed up until midnight practicing their routines, then up at 6 to start again. Yes she's soft. (And yes, I'm much softer.) So in trying to inspire her to hang in there and persevere, when she was begging me to drive 6 hours each way and bring her home, I said something like, "Think of Harriet Tubman, who went into harms way, day after day, to bring people out of slavery into freedom. Think of the hard physical labor, the uncertainty of food or a safe place to sleep. The DANGER. And how homesick she must have been, and the people working towards their freedom. They must have craved a warm bed with their loved ones nearby, as much as you." <br /><br />Yeah, that went over well. She's been making fun of me for my 'inspiring' speech since she got home.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00653383372182667361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-58904289565782070912010-08-16T06:34:59.755-08:002010-08-16T06:34:59.755-08:00Happy to hear that they're all safe and sound....Happy to hear that they're all safe and sound.
