Persevere
Persevere til the end in 2010... with Joy.
As I have been sitting here this afternoon thinking about everything our Church has been going through these past few months, our theme for the year came to mind. We have been through multiple people with health issues (big and small), job issues, family situations, celebrations of new births, and new beginnings. There is not too much I can say except from what I have witnessed - putting our faith in the Lord not matter what the situation. Hearing about having no fear of what the future holds because He holds the future. Seeing people say what they believe and then living it. I am humbled daily by knowing our church family and how they live - all for the glory of God.
This verse has come to my mind a lot recently, and I would like to share it with you. All we see is what is happening now, not the Master('s) plan.
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11

100%
Two milestones happened this semester in Honors Algebra 2.
1) All 32 of my students passed the EOC (making a level 3 or 4) - actually, all of them made an A or B on it.
2) One of them scored a 100 on it with a scale score 176 out of 178.
This is the first time we have had all of our honors students pass and each honors teacher had at least one student make a 100 on the exam. Yea!
Now for another challenge... working with the regular students to try to do the same thing.

Good Kitties!
Iggy and Hobbes are so very helpful with the laundry!
Pretty sure Hobbes and Iggy tag teamed on Wednesday night to give us a gift. As I was walking down the stairs on Thursday morning, I see this gray "fabric" lying on the floor in front of the study. I was like, where did the kitties get this material. As I got closer, I realized it was not material, but a little gray mouse - dead, of course. I did not freak out. I told Justin, he said it was a gift and I should thank the kitties, so I did. Then when he came down, he told me now they got thanked, they would play with it. And soon after he said this, Hobbes started playing with the dead mouse. I wondered where they had found the mouse. When I was taking the mouse outside, I noticed the drying rack tucked beside the washer was moved out a little. They must have gotten back there and found him around the washer and dryer. Such good kitties!

School is in Session
Time to start back. Summer was nice, but now it is time to go back to work. First week of workdays went well. Large classes (32, 30, 33) but you gotta do what you gotta do. You wont hear me complaining too much about it. More students to influence, mostly in a good way...
