Did anyone see the Hallmark move “A Smile as Big as the Moon”
on Sunday night? I have to say I am a
sap for Hallmark movies but this one was especially special to me.
It was a true story of a teacher, Mike Kerjses (played by
John Corbett) and a former Forest Hills administrator, Robynn McKinney who
started a program called Space is Special for special needs students in 1989. What an incredible effort this must have
been!
I am so thankful for the work that Kerjses and McKinney have
done and their advocacy of individuals with special needs. It is so good to see these kinds of stories
being shown on prime time TV to bring attention to these children and others
like them.
I am also so pleased to see some wholesome entertainment these days! There is just so much NOT worth watching anymore! These movies are refreshing! Thanks for sharing!

DeleteI like John Corbett. He always plays some decent roles.
ReplyDeleteI like John Corbett too. My favorite was when he was in Northern Exposure. I loved that show!
