I have some great things that I need to get posted that I have been learning but decided to get on here with some other thoughts...ones that clearly are part of my learning but not what I would normally post.

Today was frustrating...here I am on sabbatical and yet the frustrations of my world continue around me. I have been fairly free of the whole UCS situation so far - talking about it occasionally but trying to look forward to the future God has for the school, my kids and my husband. However, today it was like I was back in the fall with all the frustration again - ugh! This is not what I should be or want to be spending my thoughts and emotions on.

Even through the difficulties of this year I do believe that God's hand has been on the upland families. The way He has provided and taken care of each of us during some very difficult times has been amazing. Here we are at the last month of Upland Christian School and it is like Satan is having a field day with me! However, my God is stronger than anything he throws my way - and though I am not perfect in my responses, thoughts and attitude - I know that my God is bigger than this situation and I need to lean into that on days like this!
