how's this for a little motivation to get me through finals: my advisor (who came to observe me in my last placement) responded to an email where I asked how things went with this statement, "you demonstrated ability beyond a lot of veterans. That's not to say that you can't improve, as all teachers can improve. However, the lesson I saw during my last observation was about as close to perfect as I've seen." I think I've found my calling!
speaking of callings... a family in my church has felt a calling to adopt (actually a lot of families have) but this particular family of 7 (2 parents+5 children) have been called to adopt five more children!! A sibling group from Latvia... who may or may not speak English! read more of their story on their blog! The parents are in the midst of 19 days of travel to bring home the new additions... so please be in prayer!!! for the traveling parents, the returning children, and the children who are here (and all the people who have stepped up to help)... God is moving in Macon, Ga :-)
