Courtney's Day

Courtney
Yes, today is Courtney's Day. No, she has not been promoted to manager, nor has she set any new records, is not even running for President, although I would vote for her if she did!!!! BUT, she has been offered an opportunity that would fulfill a desire she has had for several years. Since having studied French in high school, she has thought it would be wonderful to actually go to France. Her dream is to go with a sponsored group of young ladies next March for 10 days. She will also visit Spain. She will celebrate her 20th birthday while there. The trip may even qualify as a college credit.
Her goal is to work longer hours, baby sit, run errands or any other chore that would help her earn $3,000.00. She is so very excited and many of us are excited for her. She is such a model young lady with a very caring and loving heart and if anyone deserves to have the desire of their heart met, it would be Courtney. I have already given her a jar full of collected coins that didn't need to weigh down my purse any longer. Others have made promises of monetary gifts, I will continue to collect loose change. I know with her determination and her willingness to cut back all unnecessary spending, she will meet her goal by Dec. 1st which is when the money has to be presented.
I thought each of you would be glad for her and wish her well.
Yes, I am her proud Grandmother!!!!
