Moving Forward

Hello all!!!

SO... here we go again... I am going to try to blog everyday.  I know a lot of you have seen me write that same statement many times.  What makes me smile is that God gives us second chances over and over and over.  I am SOOOOO grateful for second chances!!!!

A mentor of mine taught me that we measure our growth not by the fact that we stop falling down, but by the "get up" time after we fall.  If we are growing, the time it takes for us to get up when we fall should get shorter and shorter.  So we may fall, but we don't just lay and continue in our sin and failures, but we recognize our sin and failure, and we jump back up, dust ourselves off and continue in forward motion.

Good word, eh?  :-)

So here I am recognizing the failure I've had with blogging and jumping back on the horse.  I am recommitted, and I am renewed.  I decided to start blogging on a new page- which I created like 7 years ago, but never ended up blogging on. 

So, here's to fresh starts!

I got flowers from one of my 2nd grade students on Friday, because it was my last day as a student teacher in her class.  (I will have to add the pic I took of them later, cause the pic isn't uploading from my phone :-(

Love and blessings to you all!!!
