While we are all enjoying our new school year excitement, this little girl is struggling. She wants to go to school so badly and see her friends, and all her favorite teachers. This picture sums up how she feels the majority of the time lately. She was very happy and encouraging for the boys, but her heart was hurting. If you know Layla, this is not her normal. This is the face of loneliness and seclusion. We know so many having this same struggle right now. We love you and are thinking of you all today. If you have some time, send her some words of encouragement.
