My nasty chocolate has been trying to figure out how to help my student and her family since their eviction. They went into foster care this week which was a huge relief to me (knowing that they are fed, clean, and rested) but heartbreaking for their dad. Please pray that the housing application we helped him fill out will be pushed through quickly due to their situation. The housing comes with supports that would help this single father care for his children. It would be a huge blessing!
On a positive note, I have had many good chocolates too!
1. I found out that I get to return to work at my school next year! There are many things that I love about my school. Not that it is perfect, but I LOVE the people I work with and my students.
2. I have also been consistent about staying physically active despite a busy schedule. I'm not losing more weight but have maintained my weight loss since last year. I am joining our teachers' kickball team this week. Joining the team is a little frightening to me since I am uncoordinated but I'll wait to kick until everyone else has had a few beers and levels the playing field. :)
3. This summer I will also be able to go see my amazingly wonderful friend, Casey, when she and her hubby have their first baby. I can't wait!!!!!! I'm also going to see another friend and her family next week. This crazy lady has potty trained her 8 month old daughter. This phenomenon is something that has to be seen in person.
