“Mommy, I don’t want to go to school”

Me: “I’m sorry you don’t want to go to school. I’m glad you get to go to school. Did you know that some girls don’t get to go to school?”

“What!? Why not!? Someone needs to speak up for them!”

You do that strong girl!! Mommy is proud of you!

Today is International Woman’s Day. I thought I would honor some beautiful young women I’ve met by sharing their portraits. I pray they all get to go to school and that they will #makeithappen (the 2015 theme).
