No Crying or Detention

We returned home after the first day of classes with no detention, no crying, and I even want to go back again today :-) (If you don't know what I'm talking about read our previous post)

Please, Oh Please, Don't Make Me Cry

When my mom asked me how my first day of elementary school was, I replied:

It was okay but... I don't think I'll go back.

Then there was my first day of junior high school when my mom didn't even have to ask. I returned home crying, drenched and with blue stains on my khakis from where my 3-ring binder had bled onto them in the rain and a detention notice because I missed athletics due to the fact I couldn't open the silly combination lock on my gym locker.

Tomorrow is another first day of classes... the youth ministry institute is finally starting. I sure hope it goes better this time :-)

Thanks to so many of you who have supported us over the last 18 months of preparation. Your prayers, encouragement and financial support have kept us going.
