Introducing . . .


Actually, this is not an introduction - just a clarifier . . .
Ryan AKA: Captain Jack, Alpha Dude or as I think of him, Ryanrox has now become an "intern" who works with me, Jason and a teacher at Lincoln. He has ENORMOUS skills that God is going to use in many ways to bless LOTS of people. He brings with him a spirit of fresh creativity that makes everything a lot more fun! ANd what a heart! Today when we were doing some defining of roles, I asked, "what do you see yourself doing here?" He answered: anything that can take some of your work away so that you can have less stuff on your plate. I'm going to like this season of life!

Double Blessings x 150 = JOY!

Last night at Tuesday school, our big kids (first graders - fifth graders) paired up with a preschooler to write notes of blessing for residents in the nursing home. When we pitched it to the big kids, we told them that they got to be part of a double blessing. They would get to help a three year old bless a senior citizen. I think the big kids actually enjoyed it more than the little ones! I can't wait to deliver them to the nursing home tomorrow - stay tuned for the rest of the story.
