affirmation created by my mother for a
summer care program affirmations helps
us build confidence confidence helps
make happy kids
my mom has changing the world through
developing smart and happy kids through
confidence I’m one of her greatest
achievements what did you agree hi my
name is symphony Dorsey and today I’m
gonna tell you how my mother is mine and
other children’s hero my mother is a
hero to others because of her empathy
and caring attitude she has small
learning groups and was inspired to help
develop confident kids when I was 4
years old my mother started a summer
account how she got started with this
she was a nanny for many years she was
also a great parent to me and my
siblings parents really loved her and
that kids even want her to leave so
after that a lot of parents canter
because they couldn’t handle their kids
so they asked my mother for advice my
mother was really happy to help raise
happy kids because she had so many
parents coming to her she decided to
start she decided to start a summer camp
business she designed fun games like
successful where she teaches children
how to recognize and celebrate their
daily successes the camp is kind of like
a mannequin
me but what we do differently is build
confidence to creating place and showing
them to the parents as Meghan Trainor
says in a song everyone’s born to be
different that’s the one thing that
makes us the same confidence teaches us
to embrace our differences after the
success of the summer camp people on
social media again began to contact my
mother for advice now my mother works
with people all over the world inspiring
parents to build confidence in their
children my mother has inspired to me my
mother has inspired me to make my own
affirmation please stand up and repeat
after me
I am confident I am brave I will use my
talents to save the day you guys can sit
down now my definition of a hero is
being the leader inspiring others and
positively changing the world my mother
is doing all these things and that is
mother would you please come up on the
stage
thank you for inspiring me [Applause]
