-Year one of teaching is finished. Now I get to enjoy my month long break that is coming to an end in one short week. I wasn't sure if a month would be enough time to get rested and miss my kids but I think it ended up being perfect. Now I'm ready to go back in and crack the whip/love on my kiddos.
-I recently got off of Facebook. No, I did not "de-friend" you. It was a much needed change. My life is complete without updating the entire world with my shenanigans and hearing drama in other people's lives. I love investing and sharing in friend's lives but Facebook was not a productive way for me personally to do this. Hopefully this will give me more time to blog. ;)
-One of my best friends had a baby and I got to be there to welcome him into the world (pictures will come as soon as his Mimi emails them to me). He is going to have a fun Aunt Laura to come visit in New Orleans when his mom needs a little break. It was such a blessing to me to get to see my friend and her husband form this family; it literally brings tears to my eyes. God has blessed me by getting to see His hand at work not only in my life but in my friend's lives as well.
-God has been so faithful in my life despite my fickleness. He proves His love for me again and again. Yet, I don't trust Him when things are out of my control. This has been especially true in the past week. My roommate and I have to either find a roommate to move in with us or a 2 bedroom apartment to move into. We have been unable to find a place that meets all of our needs and is in a desirable neighborhood so I reluctantly agreed to look for a random roommate online. Shortly after agreeing, Sarah found someone's ad that looks very promising. She seems to be a Christian, which was my major concern. I want to come home to a positive and encouraging environment because I do not receive spiritual encouragement at work--not that it is a negative environment. Please pray that we will rest in God's faithfulness.
Now back to soccer... Let's make some of these kicks count!
