When will I ever learn?
God continues to teach us--sometimes I think I must be a slow learner! Today, we got a new, precious little boy in our class--1st grade. He and his mom, dad, and little sister live in a shelter. God continues to put things in better perspective every day. Shame on me for all that complaining. My problems are nothing compared to the problems of so many. Thank you Lord, for being patient with me.

God is good all the time. Thank goodness he put that little boy in the best class ever with the best teacher ever !! That little boy is so lucky to have you. I still remember when I was 3 or 4 and you took the time to read to me. I don't remember anyone else ever doing that for me! EVER! Thank you so much! That has stuck with me for all these years. Love you, mean it.
Thanks for saying that Lisa--you are so encouraging! As I kid, I don't remember that much--so thanks for remembering! I am loving that little boy--and a guy I teach with and his wife and I may go over to the rescue mission to volunteer--it seems to be pretty close to home!
Mom I love teaching with you and serving with you at church. I love seeing your heart for our new little friend.
