A Partly Cloudy Summer

It seems as if my summer has come and gone so quickly.  I kept on trying to remember to enjoy my time here in the Pacific Northwest and yet too many mornings got away from me (even though I greatly appreciated my rest).

After a year of learning to be completely dependent on Christ and dying to my own desires I felt like it was safe to say that coming home would be a nice vacation from all that I had been learning.  Funny thing though, God doesn't take summer vacation.  As soon as I flew home I quickly realized that what I was learning across the world still applied in my own home.

But God is good, and I feel like I am going back refreshed and ready for this school year.  I am excited for what the Lord has in store for me and my fourth graders this year!

My grandma gave me a verse the other day, she told me it was meant for me :) and I thought it was appropriate.

          "A miserable heart means a miserable life; 
           a cheerful heart fills the day with song (Proverbs 15:15)."

Rene's Interview

Last February a good friend of mine, Rene Ramos, stopped by my classroom and spent some time with the kids.  Rene was curious and wanted to ask the kids some questions about life here at Faith.  

Enjoy!
