Last Day
Looking on Facebook this morning, being bombarded by pics of my friends with kids graduating from high school tonight just has me feeling so different emotions. Mostly a nervous feeling with the knowledge that we’ll be there in just 3 quick years, I’ll be sitting in their shoes. That in itself makes me feel, not… Read More »
Trip to Birmingham
Drew and the AHS JV soccer team were in a tournament back in April. He went up with the team. Rob and I went up Friday night to watch the 2 games. Drove back to our friends’ lake house in Dadeville, then served at Emmaus Saturday morning and headed back up to Birmingham after that.… Read More »
Graduation Party
A lesson learned?

All of a sudden…
I was sitting at the staff computer up at the our front desk, not evening touching the keyboard, when all of sudden the keyboard and the keyboard tray crashes into my lap! The mouse, of course, went flying straight to the floor. I just sit there as my 2 student workers look over at giggling,… Read More »
{Like a} Funeral for a Friend
I woke up Tuesday morning feeling sick to my stomach. Feeling as if I was missing the funeral for my best friend. That yearning in my heart that told me, “Let me see them one more time.” It’s terrible, gut-wrenching. Knots form as I try not to ponder the thought that the Toomer’s Oaks will… Read More »
