Episode 106: The Miss Factor with Miss O

In this episode, Vicki Atkinson and Wynne Leon are with Wynne's nine-year-old daughter, Miss O.Miss O was given a fourth grade class assignment to write about a perspective change. When she came home with this short essay about Wynne's dad, she was stunned.She reads the essay to us and tells us what inspired her. Clearly we have a personal interest in this but at a bigger level, it’s fascinating to see what kids take away from family stories.Vicki asks about how Miss O finds her voice and is so good at teasing out why it’s so meaningful to hear it from her perspective.When we dig in to what Miss O knows about her grandfather who she never met, it’s both interesting and endearing to see the impression she’s gleaned of my dad. It’s also really funny to see the many ways they are alike. Miss O talks about what she is doing next. Namely, making a slime channel on YouTube kids. As Miss O says, she is passionate about slime and she wants to share hercreations. Fortunately, for all us we have boundaries – the slime has to stay in the rec room and she’s only showing her hands. We’re confident you’ll love the scenic and beautiful places we explore as we talk about family stories! We know you’ll love it!Links for this post:Episode 106 show notesFrom the hosts:Vicki’s book about resilience and love: Surviving Sue; Blog: https://victoriaponders.com/Wynne’s book about her beloved father: Finding My Father’s Faith; Blog: https://wynneleon.com/
