Summer Reflections!

  As always my summer is tightly scheduled which probably contributes to the time flying by.  I'm now at the bottom of my to-do-list which always gives me a welcome feeling of accomplishment.  It has been a fantastic break!  The SREB conference was amazing.  It was thrilling to see over 100 people in attendance for my "H.O.T.S. for education" presentation on Friday, July 19th.  Thanks to all in attendance and for your comments and well wishes as I look forward to seeing you again next year in Nashville. We were even able to see Baby Beau on our return trip from Charlotte where he gave me a few precious chuckles.  So adorable!
 One of the BIG projects on my list this summer was to create a craft room for sewing, painting and projects.  Fortunately, my husband and son, Matt Wilkins, got on board to see this through.  It started with moving furniture, cleaning out drawers and closets, painting walls; then laying out the plan on graph paper, locating the cabinets and installation.  It's a dream come true to have this functional space all my own!
 One more week of professional development and then it will be back to the early morning school schedule. I must say, that as much as I love my time off there is something to be said for the productive work routine and getting to know my new students that I actually enjoy! Cheers to my 10th year of teaching! God bless and  be safe!
