Written a week ago, on my first day of school...
Today I started my last year of middle school. Of course, it wasn’t as big of a deal as if I went to a school. But it was still a day of reflection.
I remember school two whole years ago, when Mom was on bedrest and we did school each day on her bed. We were anxiously awaiting the birth of our twin sisters. When they were born we took a bit of time off school and as a result finished in June.
Last year was challenging but got easier as the babies grew and learned to play and sleep. Last year I learned to love playing the piano after 5 long years of it being “so-so.” We did a lot of good (I see that now) work last year and I learned some important concepts.
And we get to this year.... I have “great expectations” for this year. I’m hoping to learn a lot and to grow in knowledge; not only in academics, but in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ and the wonderful plan he has for me and my life.
As I prepare to hit the “save” button, I want to ask you.... Have you taken time to reflect on school years past by?
