Thankful

Happy Thanksgiving week!

As my last post showed, I've struggled a bit lately. I can't say the struggles are over, but I do know that God has ministered to me this week and I feel more hopeful. I'm thankful for:

-A class meeting where the kids and I discussed and prayed about some of the positives and difficulties we have in our class

Please do pray for the social aspects of class. 3rd grade is evidently a learning-to-be-friends year.

-A good Bible reflection and prayer time with a friend-A chat and prayer with another friend under a palm tree looking over the Indian Ocean
-A teacher appreciation dinner put on by the family of two of my students, five courses :)

The card pictured here was made by one of my students. It was nice to hear things I do well and the benefit my teaching is to the family and parents, who work for Young Life, focusing on youth with disabilities.

-A nice, productive Monday to start the week
