First Post!

Hi everyone!

I've never seen myself as much of a blogger, but I've realized that it's one of the best ways to keep in touch once I move back home and away from college life.  So please bear with me as I get the hang of this!  A much cuter design is coming very soon, promise!

I'm really going to try to update this often, with the goal being to share funny stories and lessons that the Lord teaches me as I complete my first year as a high school science teacher.  I am incredibly excited, scared, hopeful, and thankful that God has placed me exactly where He wants me to be.  If you would have asked me a year ago where I thought I would be at this point in my life, I would have told you that I pictured myself teaching at my alma mater (go bulldogs!), but this new job seems somehow better and more perfectly suited just for me.  I know that probably sounds silly, but I can totally see the Lord's hand on my life in this area and I am beyond grateful for His provision.  :)

As for my current situation, I am completing my second summer as a camp counselor at the country club where I work, as well as babysitting and (trying to!) getting organized for my move back home.  I'm so happy to have the option of staying at my parents' house for a couple of months while I accumulate some money before moving into my own place.  They are so gracious to allow me to stay with them, and I'm so excited to get to spend some time with them and my brothers again.  It's definitely going to be an adjustment, but I know God is in control.  Pray for me as I enter into this new and exciting part of my life!  I cannot wait to meet my students and co-workers, and to fulfill God's plan for me!

Caroline :)
