That’s a heavy list but I have decided to take on the challenge of being more humble this school year. To be successful in this new endeavor I will need to keep this list close by as a reminder to myself of this practice. More importantly, I will also need accountability to make this happen. Thank you Two Writing Teachers and the Slice of Life community for providing me with this space to write and share. Posting this resolution makes me accountable to the world!
What I Learned on My Summer Vacation or How a Granddaughter Can Make You Ponder How to Teach
My summer days with my granddaughter are over for this year, but I know that I will continue to learn many more new and interesting insights from her through the years to bring into my life and into my teaching. I just need to keep my eyes and mind open to new insights. I am after all a forever learner!
Thank you to the Two Writing Teachers for hosting this Slice of Life blog which helps me continue in my writing journey!
How Blessed Am I?
Grandchild number two arrived yesterday with great celebration and cheers. This makes two grandchildren within four months. So now I am the proud grandmother of a granddaughter and a new little grandson!
How blessed am I?
How blessed am I to see my two children give birth to two happy, healthy children.
How blessed am I to live close enough to see the newborns within hours of their being born and to then be such a part of their days.
How blessed am I to see the new aunts and uncles (my children) proudly hold their niece and nephew.
How blessed am I to be near extended family and friends that celebrate and help us keep wait.
How blessed am I knowing that these two little cousins will be close enough in age to be playmates at family gatherings – and in between.
How blessed am I to know that each grandchild has an angel of a grandfather to watch over them every minute of every day!
How blessed am I!
