Heart (a poem)

Teacher's note:  Emma and I put this poem together using individual words on slips of paper, and then pieced together in Emma's preferred order.  We are studying poets, so this was a school project.
"Heart"
I am a woman of kindness.
There is a new door I have in front of me.
I am walking with you in the joy we found.
I am in a new life
going with a smile.
The key to hope is to see the path.
You find beauty by looking at the heart.

I am so glad can I say I listened.  I am going to be more consistent because I know it's very necessary for my mental health.  I am a better woman when a bee is not in me ear and I am a better student where I am at Sancta Familia.  I love you, Nikki Copelin, for being the best teacher I could ever have at this beginning of my new life.

February 7

I am glad that can I say I listened to me music.  I am able to feel like what I am.  Also am better woman because I am Emma, a girl who will be able to talk. Now I am able to understand me anger.

Teacher's note:  Emma is much more connected to her feelings and how her body feels (stomach aches, feelings of emotions, etc).  This is new for her, and can be scary, but she is handling it very well.  Emma understands that this is good and it is a process of discovery.

February 2

I am glad I listened.  I am very nervous today and very uncomfortable.  But now I feel safe and less stressed.  The music was not as loud and I am glad that I am feeling me more.  Before I listened, the bees were 8,000,000,000,000.  NOw they are at 1,000 and me stress is 50% better.
