Today is Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day. Since I am away from my office, Sarah won't be able to participate today, but she is no stranger to the justice center. Sherry and I spent the year Sarah was three working out of our home as we were in the process of moving from Nashville to Maryville, so she has plenty of experience seeing her parents at work.
According to the event's official website,
Designed to be more than a career day, the Take Our Daughters And Sons To Work® program goes beyond the average “shadow” an adult. Exposing girls and boys to what a parent or mentor in their lives does during the work day is important, but showing them the value of their education, helping them discover the power and possibilities associated with a balanced work and family life, and providing them an opportunity to share how they envision the future and begin steps toward their end goals in a hands-on and interactive environment is key to their achieving success.
