One Semester Down!!

How relieved I am to have one semester down towards my master’s degree in teaching.  As I worked through many hurdles quite unexpectedly in the summer, and then all the due dates throughout this semester, and another great personal trial in which I was suddenly thrown into….I just feel deeply grateful for the perseverance and determination God has given me this semester.  Boy, am I grateful for a break!  I am thankful for all the ways I have been able to walk the kids through this challenging season for our family and all the time I get to spend with them.  They are my first calling and always on my mind.  Thank-you Lord for getting me through this semester and thank-you for this break.
