September 11

Abby said she woke up this morning and felt productive, so she decided to paint flowers on her bedroom wall.

She'd been planning to paint said-cherry blossoms and hang her mirror for several months now so I was happy to see that she finally decided to get it done.

There's something really wonderful about feeling like your space is truly your space, so I'm happy that she took a step toward making that happen for herself. As she approaches graduation, it's a huge blessing to see her making choices and being herself in outward ways.
