Last night was open house at EMCA and one of the things Haydn's teacher asked was that we pray for her and the students as they began the new year. How awesome is that! So, today when I was reading my devotion it was about teachers:
"Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a
harvest if we do not give up." Galatians 6:9
The young teacher read the note attached to the fresh green ivy; "Because of
the seeds you planted, we will one day grow into beautiful plants like this one.
We appreciate all you've done for us. Thank you for investing in our lives."
Few joys exceed the blessings of faithfully investing time and love into the lives
of others. Never, never give up on those plants!
I am so thankful that Haydn is able to attend a Christian school and so thankful that he has Christian grandparents and parents to help guide him. I personally don't mind subbing @ my son's school, but I would not have the patience to be a career teacher. I am so thankful for all of the teacher's out there!!!!
May you have a great school year!
On a side note, Haydn said he loved the first day of 4th grade, now take in to account my child has always loved school, but he also only went 1/2 a day today and didn't do any schoolwork. So, let's hope that this attitude continues throughout the year (especially in Spelling)!
Have a good weekend!
