Spiritual Being (Archived)

Being asked by Kelley to speak
Praying for God's direction and blessing in that and realizing He was encouraging me to do so.

Writing out my testimony
WHat God will do IN me in this process and the sacred time I will spend with Him
Encouraging others to Keep On Walking

Teacher

Be a teacher that inspires my students to learn and to love others
To encourage my students in their walks and in their lives as they face life and possible difficulties
At the end of the school year, I feel like I am losing 18 precious people that hold a piece of my heart

Write and send letters on a weekly basis to various students
Each quarter, send mass letters to all present and past students with their names inside Scripture
Attend dance recitals, sporting events, and other activities of my current students
Write "my" seniors letters encouraging them this final school year
Keep a prayer journal and regularly pray over my 18 as well as other 5th graders that God continues to bring to mind
Write first quarter letters.
Write second quarter/Thanksgiving letters

TIME, lack of it.
Distracted with TV, errands, grading papers, working out, and all sorts of everyday life
Feelings of "It doesn't really matter."

The hugs at the end of the year with smiling kiddos who say thanks Ms. Vaughn
Knowing I gave my heart and my time investing in people
Hugs as I see them in the future and those special conversations that take place between us.

Mother

Maintain a log in my journal as I pray for Cade
Choose Scriptures weekly that I pray over him and for him
Daily read Jesus Calling with Cade and pray together for ourselves and others
Send Cade anonymous letters in the mail that encourage him and remind him someone is praying for him.
When school is out, stop what I am doing and hug him when he comes into my room and talk to him about his day.
When he talks to me in the car, LISTEN to him. Stop my brain and listen and talk and laugh with him.
Spend time rocking out to music with him as we drive with the windows down.

Continuing to build a special relationship with my son.
Having incredible conversations about life and faith and God as we live our lives together
Being someone who Cade knows he can depend on and trust
Passing on a legacy to him like my parents did for me.

Friend

Pray regularly for my precious 10 peeps
Send cards of encouragement every few weeks to them
Continue to plan our poinsettia nights and keep the group together on a regular basis (2 this fall)
Plan an overnight trip at the FF Ranch before Christmas
