Congratulations  Ladies on achieving this wonderful milestone!  It has been a journey for all us of reaching this goal in our lives.  I pray that you each continue to make children first and always advocate for what they deserve.  Use your experience and knowledge to make a difference in early childhood education.  Assisting just one child means you have been successful! May your passion and efforts continue to multiply.  It hard to for me to think that next Wednesday I won't have an assignment due?!!!






My goal is to complete my capstone vision with my current program and hope to make a difference in the community that I am employed in.  I hope to see an increase in education in the community, increase in the amount of developmental screenings completed and increase in the amount of children on our reservation receiving early intervention services.


 

Dr. E,

Thank you for pushing me! I struggle with wanting you to just make it easy and give me answers but you challenged me to use my own abilities and knowledge.  Your belief in me and what I can achieve in future is truly inspiring.  I did horrible in my undergrad studies.  To have attained a master's degree was unreachable.  In the beginning of the courses I doubted myself and didn't realize what knowledge I have gained and will always gain working with children and families.  I have had some really strong mentors in my life and for that I will internally be grateful.  I have learned that I can and will achieve anything I set my mind on!  This isn't the last time you will hear my name!!!!

Nikki
