As we get ready to celebrate our Nation's Independence Day, we can't help to be reminded of what it means to be independent. A baby learning to walk, a toddler potty training, and a preschooler learning skills needed to enter kindergarten are all building blocks on the path to independence. Take pride in knowing that you contribute to the well-being of so many children and their developing independence - we thank you for that and all you do continuously!!
