The drive of this girl! Grades, Martha, and Perseverance

Tatum just complete the 3rd quarter! Wow! The year is getting harder, but she continues to shine. Now, her History grade went down a bit, but with the project coming up, she’ll raise her grade. She is doing project and presentation on Martha Washington.

First, here is her report card.

But…and this is a BIG but…. I look at the character. (grades help too).

Look at what Mrs. King wrote:

Sweet, sensitive, and a servant’s heart. YES! She sees what I see. Often she is comforting a hurting student.

Now, what I see at home…much of this, but even more.


Tatum came into our room this Sunday morning with a two-page essay she completed. Now, she had already completed it for Martha Washington, but we cut it up and put it on her board for presentation.

She apparently woke up in the middle of the night with a realization:
OH NO! I have to turn this essay on Monday, and we cut it up! I need to rewrite it!

So she woke up at 5 am (on her own) and did this whole thing:


Bursting in our room at 6:30am, she showed me her paper.

So I told her she had showed some tremendous character traits by doing this;

Perseverance

Responsibility

Respect

Attention to Detail

Diligence

and Intentionality

SO proud of you for being WHO you are. Your fruit is juicy!
