Living Kindly

Although I’ve never met Miss Brandi Miller in person, she could not have had a more profound effect on my life if she tried! She is a first grade teacher at Caldwell Elementary in Florida.

Can it be my four? These are my children. Each one encourages me in different areas. They also inspire me to be a positive role model for them.

Who's Your One?

How JGS inspires me every day. Whenever a sport has got me down or set me back, there is one person who brings me up. After a strikeout or a missed opportunity, he is there to correct me, and make me better. In the cages or on the court he pushes me to be better player so I thank him....

Who's Your One?

My mom is my one. She inspires me. She always goes above and beyond in caring for me and my sisters. I know it's "in the job description", but my mom really cares. She inspires me because she is always thinking of others, from my family to peoples she's never met. My mom got my sisters and I into volunteer...
