First week update

This first week back to work has been really wonderful. I have been doing a lot of listening and learning as I instruct during the day. The fifth grade students are so eager to be done with the year and with elementary school, but they are not ready to graduate and have many lessons to learn. I am implementing new procedures; they are slowly adapting. I look forward to every day! I am enjoying establishing relationships with my new collegues; many of whom are exhausted from a trying year and have welcomed me like a breath of fresh air.

Jesus is my best friend and He sticks with me closer than a brother. He carries me through each day. As I go with Him, trusting nearly every step of the way, I know that as I change, he changeth not. I must be queit enough to hear His whisper.
