Hello again! This past week I had 2 very exciting appearances. On Wednesday May 6, I had the opportunity to speak to the 8th grade at Holy Trinity School in Fairview Heights. We spent an hour talking about alcoholism and ways to avoid negative peer pressures in our lives. I also had the chance to hand out materials from the National Institute of Drug Abuse, which allows the students to see the effects of alcohol and drug abuse first hand. We had a fun activity where the students worked in groups going over different scenarios that can happen in high school. The students were very receptive, and were eager to share their thoughts and ideas. Thank you Holy Trinity School for welcoming me
and allowing me to speak to your students!
Saturday May 9 I hosted a mother daughter tea party called "Sharing Tea With the Queen Learning Character In Between!"
All the proceeds from this event were donated to the Children's Miracle Network! The day began with my Princess Victoria and I greeting the moms and daughters. We then crowned the "princesses" and had our pictures taken. The girls then made beautiful picture frames decorated with crowns, castles and of course glitter! Next it was time for tea! We drank tea and had delectable cupcakes and an assortment of cookies.
After we had our fabulous treats I talked to the girls about Character Counts, and the importance of character in their lives. The girls were very good listeners! To end the fun afternoon we played "Little Sally Walker," musical chairs, and freeze dance. Thank you so much to Beverly Fulton, Dana Fulton, and my mom Lynn Johnson for all of your hard work to making this event so special for the girls and I! I appreciate all that you do!
