A YEAH YEAH Out Loud Moment

My adopted cousin's wife (mother of 6) recently found her mother's family.

Her loving birth mother sent Bernadette to another loving mother and father who could have no other children. Attending the best schools, well cultured, Bernadette eventually married into "our" family in MN after finishing college.

Mother of her own 6 children, now back in the Bahamas after her adoptive parent's death, she ventured out with her oldest daughter and granddaughter to another island. Knowing this was the "home" island of her birth mother, she said to me, "I pulled a Kathy" and stood up and said OUT LOUD; I'm looking for " " family. Someone in the restaurant said; "WHY" and with her plea to find her birth family, the respondent said; I'm your cousin.

And so it began. It turns out her "mother" had 5 children, including one "sister" who currently lives on the same island as Bernadette.

This weekend, her sister will take her to another island to meet the rest of the "family". So, I'm proud to be part of the family Bernadette found who gave her the "YEAH YEAH" to listen to her inner "cheer" leader to be brave to say Out Loud, she wanted to find her family. And so she did.

YEAH YEAH
Love "your cousin"

YYOL to participate in "Self Esteem in Schools" Campaign















Anke Otto-Wolf and YYOL's Kathy Carpenter will join to bring campaign alive.

Senator Obama requested the Self-Esteem project information from Anke Otto-Wolf and said that “Our kids deserve a better chance at every level –from preschool and summer school, to high school and college. Last year, he introduced the Innovation Districts for School Improvement Act, which provides grants to school systems that draft detailed plans for broad reforms at the district level.”

Anke Otto-Wolf is the creator of Self-Esteem Tools for Teachers and the initiator of the Self-Esteem in Schools campaign to be launched mid August.

Bringing awareness of the need for self-esteem in shools is the project's main focus.

More information about this project will be posted on YYOL web site and Self Esteem Tools for Teachers.
