Portrait of Hope by allie912

Portrait of Hope

Yesterday I gave one of my 4th grade classes the portrait quiz I had created on this site, and the kids became interested in what happens on 365. When I told them about the weekly themes. this young man suggested I take a picture of him. I couldn't figure out why until he reminded me that his last name is Hope. We all chuckled, but last night I got to thinking about what he said and realized that much more than a name, our boys and girls are the hope of our future. Today I tracked my willing volunteer down and took his picture as a great entry for this week's theme.
This is an excellent entry! I love your caption and what a cool portrait

Hope in the flesh. That is so cool. and I agree 100% Allison, our youth today have an awesome responsibility ahead of them. We are giving them a tough job to tackle, but they are the hope that is going to be in the forefront.
