What a week!

  Our family had the privilege to host the newest member of our family for the week of the Fourth of July!  I had a thrilling moment when little Beau responded to me with a precious smile.  Oh, the pride of a grandparent!  We all enjoyed babysitting, having meals together with those memorable interruptions, laughing at the small "toots", tripping over baby "stuff" and visiting with family, neighbors and friends. It just can't get any better than that!
  Sadly, however, our dearest friend, Barbara, lost her battle with cancer on the Fourth of July!  She was the most adorable, stylish lady and I suppose it was fitting for her to go out with fireworks.  The services were beautiful. The comforting messages and lovely music helped to remind me that we are on earth temporarily and where our focus should be. Please join me in praying for her adoring husband, family and friends.
  At this moment I am preparing for the national SREB conference in North Carolina next week. Pray for safe travel and for me to reach other teachers with my presentations on literacy as it relates to Career Readiness.
