Happy Saturday!
Today is the International Day for Achievers!
International Day for Achievers is a day that honors those who have achieved something in any field. It is a day that recognizes those who have set goals and displayed determination and confidence on their journey to achieve them. In particular, it honors those who have enhanced the lives of other humans. It is not a day to honor the powerful and famous, but a day to honor those who have really made an impact in making the world a better place.
Trauma Bears!!! The gift that changes lives for little ones!
