The end of this school day was a rough one. Here is the list:
Ringworm is going around...
Found out one of my students (who has been out sick for 2 days now) is confirmed to be in the hospital with H1N1.
Robin (one of the other 3rd grade teachers) is in the hospital with influenza a..possibly could be H1N1
The fire alarm went off twice today, unexpectedly and unplanned of course. The first one was, whatever, no big deal, BUT the second time the alarm went off was right after the students has just left the room, heading downstairs to wait for their parents and I had to go to the bathroom so bad, but while I was going the fire alarm goes off, yes in the middle of me going to the bathroom. So, I stop and try to get out as soon as I can. While I am coming down the last step outside, the heel of my shoe gets stuck in the crack/indent (don't know why they have them on all the stairs in the school) and I fall on HARD on my knees, scrapping them up badly and starting up my knee issues again. Not to mention that I fell in front of not only elementary students and teachers, but middle school and highschool students and staff as well as all the parents...talk about embarrassment. Now my knees are super sore and beat up.
Yea.
It was rough end of the day, but once I got back to my room, Jessica brought me dinner (such a sweet girl) and we just relaxed and ate. I was then able to get lots accomplished. God is still good. I was getting really overwhelmed with all of this plus lesson planning, but God really came through for me. Please pray for me though.
(Next week, I am begin teaching fully for 3 weeks!!! :D )
Pray for:
-protection from sickness and ringworm!
-wisdom for lesson planning, so I can effectively teach (and help) every student. They all need so much help and I want to do as much as I can, with God's help and strength of course!
-my knees...strength and healing!
-for God to show up even more and continue to touch my student's hearts. There are so many cool stories I could share right now, but I really need to get to bed. Just keep praying because I am seeing the prayers answered!!! God is moving!!!
I miss you all and love you very much!
God is good,
Katelyn
Katelyn oh my goodness this is crazy! I can't believe everything that was happening at once...I pray that God gives you good health as you are there living and teaching. I'm sorry to hear about your knees. I guess it has been a humbling and "slowing" thing in your life. Nothing happens to you that isn't Father-filtered.
ReplyDeleteYour trust in God encourages me so much. I am praying for you my darling.
