During the graduation I was looking around at all of the kids present. They had their best clothes on as they cheered for their moms. The smiles on the faces of these children represented much more than I will ever realize.
It isn't just that their mother's graduated. When it is time to go to bed, each child sleeps knowing that their mother will rest as well. When the boys and girls go to school, their moms now go to cut and style hair. For the first time in many of their lives, there is peace and hope. There is no shame in telling where the money for their food came from. There is no reason to hang their heads.
