It's Back to School Day

Today is our first day back to school. It's back to routines, football games, band trips, basketball games, homework, lesson plans, and so much more.  Today is Rachel's first day of her senior year...and Hannah's first day of her 8th grade year.   May God bless this year; may He be greatly glorified both in their lives and in mine as I am blessed to teach 87 students and may He continue to cause His face to shine upon us and upon you too. 

The first day of school always reminds me of one of my favorite verses, "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength." Phil. 4:13  Yes, even this momma's heart can try to embrace the fact that this is the first day of her oldest daughter's senior year and her last year of high school...God is good! {and I'm going to stop right there because I don't want to cry all of my makeup off before I go to school.}
