The story begins a few months ago while we were driving near a Youth and Family center. Jane noticed that their flag outside was really shredded and in bad shape, so we went to Target and bought a new flag and then took it to the center and gave it to them. The women there were so touched and Jane received several cards from board members thanking her for her kind act. 
Saturday night there was a Youth Foundations' Partners for Children Donor Reception. Jane was invited as a guest of honor. Brad took her and said that she was the only kid there. There were lots of important political people and board members present. Jane said "I shook a lot of hands and had to say 'you're welcome' over and over again." Jane was the first one to shoot a basketball in the newly renovated gym- in front of everyone!
She was glad they had a big fruit and cheese table to eat from.
As she was going to bed she prayed that she'd "never forget this night."
On Friday we went to the Science Museum for their BUG exhibit:
Beautiful bees putting "pollen" velcro things in the flowers.
They had lots of fun interactive things and great displays all over the ways.

Very impressive! I see many repetitions of "you're welcome" and handshakes for this girl. Lots of good things for her future!
