I have been in a classroom as both a teacher and a student. Every year begins just the same, with a nervous anticipation that makes it hard to sleep the night before. Will the kids like me? Will they be nice to me?
Tomorrow I will start the BUILD program through D:hive. For eight weeks my instructors and classmates will be helping me develop WLFD into more than just an online journal. My hope is that it will become a resource for other families looking to move to Detroit.
Although I am filled with excitement and enthusiasm, I still have butterflies. Will the budding entrepreneurs like me? Will they be nice to me? And, most importantly, what will I wear?
Wish me luck.
With love from Detroit,
Callie





Callie,
You’re so cute! I wish you the best. You will look good in whatever you wear just don’t forget your SMILE! -a. mary
Can’t wait to hear how your first class went! -Lou
Loved it Lou. I had a big cheesy grin on my face the whole time. It was great to hear about everyone’s businesses and the thought of being a part of this community made me so happy. I can’t wait to hear their ideas and expand on my own.
