This is such a fantastic story, Dodie... it really is heart warming! So many children who are so smart that they are bored and misbehave, or just need specific direction do get missed, and I'm so glad you were able to work with Bosco and his friends! Congratulations on finding his motivation! Love the way you set up the page! Those doodle elements are fantastic and I really like the colors against the brown paper. Might have to scraplift this!
Oh dodie that's gorgeous!!
Your journaling is wonderful!! I had to squint my tired eyes to read it but I'm glad I did, what a wonderful journal of events, go Dodie!!
Thank you for all the lovely comments! And Cynthia - my second GSO!!!! Thank you!
There is a sad twist to the story - Bosco's father passed away within days of me making this layout. He's back in school and doing OK and I'll continue to work with him this year! Send up a prayer if you think of him =)
