Way to go, Ahbee!

Jacey's friend, Ahbee, who's from China, competed in a national Braille competition last weekend in California and WON her age group! Were we surprised? Well, heck no, given that she's the smartest kid any of us have ever met! She's been in the paper and on the news in the last few days, and I have a feeling this is only the beginning for this very special little girl. Remember her name folks, she's going to be famous one day!

Ahbee and her sweet family (taken for the paper, not by me)

Her amazing hands

We are so proud of you, Ahbee! Or is it Ah? Or is it Bee? (that's our joke and she'll be giggling when she hears it)

Oh my goodness, this is amazing! Seeing her little hands reading braille...what can I see, just an emotional photo, actually brought tears to my eyes.

Gosh, it reminds us that children are truly remarkable and sometimes we need to step back and take some lessons from them!

Hugs to you for posting this. Way to go Ahbee, let nothing stand in your way!
