We sure will miss her!

People often laugh, along with giving me crazy looks when I make it known that I'm an introvert. through and through.   I love people, like LOVE them. and I love spending time with people and laughing and making memories.   but nothing says heaven like moments alone. these moments are harder and harder to come by as life progresses, but when I find the still silence and the ability to just sit and savor each and every minute of it. I leave so refreshed.   since starting college, I have learned to cherish the times that I'm able to just slow down, to stop and just rest at the feet of the Lord. to reflect on his goodness.   this week, was nothing compared to last week but it was still quite a challenge.  I constantly live in survival mode.   yet, the Lord was so gracious as to allow my only class to get cancelled today, creating an hour of silence because sometimes, planners, pan...

Most kids feel this way.. As you get older the feeling fades very quickly. I can honestly say I adored school until a few months ago. Classes are hard. Your tired. An hour and a half is a long time to listen to a lecture. Grades are very important. Not the same anymore… I’ve always dreamed of being a teacher. And although every person I have EVER talked to has discouraged me. “Don’t you know how much they make?!” “Kids are crazy disrespectful" “It’s babysitting all over again” the list goes on and on. But when I think about how much I love kids and I desire to be a teacher. It’s one of those things you just Know. without a shadow of a doubt I know that’s God’s plan for me. To be a teacher and train up our future. So when I got the opportunity to intern locally and the principal told me...
