Turkey Day in Dogville

It's time for a holiday... so naturally I went home to see my family. Well, with 73 dogs... as Jesse McCartney would say, "how do you sleep?"

I was so excited to see the fam... have some laughs, eat some good food... ya know, just chill for a bit. And it was good. It was. We played games and laughed a lot... it was just horribly distracting to have literally 70 dogs running around barking, and making a mess everywhere. I mean, Mom and Aunt Sally are doing the best they know how to... with kennels and such. It's just too much. I feel kinda bad but I couldn't stay there any longer. After Thanksgiving, I hitched a ride to Memphis. It was too crazy loud to even talk to my sister sitting on the couch next to me. No joke. And the thing is, I know Mom didn't want a dog shelter in her house. They just need to learn to say no when people bring them dogs. But what do I know?

So here I am, back at the Hinton's house with my puppy. And here we are, sitting with our laptops, like old times. good stuff.

They love Mei. L.O.V.E her. no surprise there though. Who doesn't?

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone at Highland. Can't wait.

ATL life

They call me Ms.Terry...

So I've been teaching at Greater Atlanta Christian School for a couple months now... and I must say, it's been quite a learning experience. First of all, I love my kids. The kids that I teach are so diverse and I've learned so much from them. The second week of school, at the Spiritual Retreat I was given the honor of baptizing one of my students, Hannah Holdridge, into Christ. That's just how the year started off... and it's gotten better every day. I get to talk to my kids about my Lord and hear about their questions and see them grow. It's pretty much the best job I could have. Not to mention, 2 of my best friends in the world teach at my school. Sandy and Derek are both amazing teachers as well as friends. Also, I finally got a puppy. :) Mei is my baby girl and I am crazy about her. I really do love my life here.

So much has happened in the past few months and I haven't been blogging, but I'm going to start keeping up with it again. I need an outlet to process and reflect, and I also need to know that someone is praying specifically about what I'm living... ya know?

Well... anyhow...

I'm crazy busy with grading and stuff but I need to go to bed. The mornings come quickly around here so Mei and I are off to sleep.

Praying for Baby Jayden... Lord I know you are the Healer and the Protector and I trust in your hands!

Praying for GRG this weekend.... I'm coming home Sugar Land!!

Love you.
