I have recently just moved from the rolling hills of North Carolina where I was attending Laurel University back to my home state: Florida. I am finishing up my last semester of Laurel University online and completing my student teaching down here. I love being home, being with family, my dog, and the beach. However, it was still not an easy move. I left part of my heart behind in North Carolina. I will forever and always cherish the people I came close to up there and my church home. I also am even further away from my fiance now for a time and that really pains me. I know that the Lord has opened up this opportunity for me to come back home for a time so I do look forward to what He is going to teach me this upcoming year. He taught me last year to really get out of my comfort zone, be bold for Him and fully trust Him in everything. I wonder what lessons I shall encounter this year. I do know He has orchestrated everything so far. He has enabled me to be able to start student teaching at a Christian school that is ACSI (Association of Christian Schools International) certified and that is what I am going to school for. I will be working with the first grade and there are only 10 students! I am so excited. I was kind of scared about student teaching there, but God gave me more confirmation when I met with them this week and found out that the elementary principal went to college with my former youth pastor and was friends with him. How neat is that!
I look forward to where God is going to take me this upcoming year in my adventures of student teaching and finishing up my Senior year at Laurel University to gain my BA in Elementary Education. It may not all be roses, I may encounter a few thorns...but I know God will be with me all the way just like He always has been. Please stay tuned to hear about my adventures as a student teacher and my posts about Christmas/memories.
