I had no idea that a five-year-old could drive me to tears. I have a Master's Degree in Special Education, have raised 3 sons, and I have no idea what to do with some of these kids. Well, I know what I want to do and what they need, but I am not allowed to do that. Had one young lad get mad at me today and he rolled around on the floor and then proceeded to knock over chairs. There is nowhere to send him. We have a principal but she has to teach 1st grade. What to do?!
Most of these kids are precious. I'm thinking about putting all the ill-behaved ones at one table and just let them go at it! I've heard words you only hear in R-rated movies.
Georgia is leaving on Sunday. We will miss her! It will be Dickie and me in one apartment, and Mr. Riley in the other (below us).
Dickie stayed at the Ranch today to do some work around there. You know what the scouts say: "Leave it better than you found it."
We will go to Calvary Baptist tomorrow night for Bible Study, then Dickie will speak there on Sun. morning. Have talked to a local person about becoming involved in tourist ministry! We need local involvement so the work can be carried on after we leave. Thanks for all your prayers!

Just checking in and you are cracking me up! Maybe you need to go get another one of those milkshakes, Elizabeth!!! We'll keep praying for you and those rowdy kindergartners. Let us know any specifics on what you could need by prayer or mail!!!
ReplyDeleteI know that you have been through worse kindergartners. Remember the day your shoe was filled with vomit? And all the kids were vomiting, and then you put them on the bus, then threw your shoes away. You can handle anything! I love you!
