• Well, my job is officially finished, unless there are any loose ends that should be tied up.  I had a chance to tell the student body goodbye.  I thought I was going to make it through all right, but just about lost it at the end.  I don't know why, because I had decided that I would not.  I mean, what good do tears do?  What must be must be.  We should not cry over God's loving plans.  Perhaps it was Suzuki-san in the front row wiping her eyes that about did me in.  I have taught her from the beginning of the year and have been impressed with her willing spirit and enthusiasm.  Yep, that must have been it.  Ok, take a pause stiffen that upper lip and get control back...  Maybe it's time for a prayer of thanks for the school, the teachers and the students, and for a smooth transition.  My replacement has been provided, and I am thankful.  Kristyn stopped in this afternoon and that we had a chance to go over the textbooks, the classes, and school facilities.  She has a sense of humor that the girls will enjoy.

  So now I am free to circulate to where ever the family members need me whenever they need me.  I hope that I can use the time wisely.
