i guess i don't lead a very exciting life. i haven't done much since returning from arizona. i did participate in the march for babies... i didn't have the chance to actually walk; but i did exceed my goal of $200 by $35!!! very exciting!
the following week i participated in a 3.5 mile walk that benefited lawrence and memorial hospital - the same hospital where i was born! 2 ladies from church joined me along with a student from the youth group. we had a great time just walking and talking. the 3.5 miles went by so quickly! of course i forgot my camera, so i have no proof of these festivities. :)
as far as my year of "transformation"... God has definitely been teaching me a lot this year. again i'm leaning on Him regarding my job... i got my letter of non-renewal (along with 69 other teachers in new london) and my future as a music teacher in the district is unknown. my gramma (my only living grandparent) went into the hospital while i was in arizona and is currently in the nursing home down the road... not sure if she'll ever come out. i have friends in serious financial trouble. friends with addictions. friends with health problems. lately, i ve had a very, very heavy heart.
i've had this song on repeat on my ipod for the past week. it reminds me to keep my eyes focused on God, and my praise on Him - through the sunshine and the storms.
a BIG shout out to amanda who is currently in the hospital about to make me an honorary auntie!!!! i'm hoping this post entertains her bored self for 3-5 minutes (depending if she watches the video and how fast she reads) love you amanda! praying your delivery is easy, quick, and pain free!! speaking of my honorary niece, adah... i'll be holding her in less than 2 months!!! :o)
