There is a thing called living in the present, you don't dwell on the past and you don't focus solely on the the future. Being in nowhere North Dakota makes this task a little harder than I thought!! So for the days and weeks leading up to the end of the school year, I will focus on the present. Grading papers, writing to soldiers, keeping up with this blog, going to Mass and prayers and classes and doing my dinner duty, cleaning my room and doing what is asked of me.
One of the interesting tasks that I was asked to do was give the phonics assessment for the 4th, 5th and 6th grade. The kids already thought I talked funny so it was interesting having to sound out words for them! A story my mom likes to tell from when I was in 2nd grade came to mind. We were learning how to spell and the word was "get", well in Texas we say "git". So I would spell get, git. NOW I wasn't aware that I still say git, until I was sounding these words out and it took every ounce of energy to say G E T not G I T (sounds words out slowly).
I have had 2nd, 3rd and 4th grade all write to soldiers. I am still writing to my soldiers and marines, but because of no contact through the website my list is getting less. I have however added a marine near and dear to my heart and the hearts of my loved ones.Please continue to pray for these brave men and women and their protection, and pray for their families continued strength and courage.
Another little "project" we are doing here at the school is praying for our spiritually adopted babies. Babies that are in danger of being aborted. We have named our babies and we pray for them daily.
Please keep praying for me, as I am praying for ya'll
God Bless You
