I never want to leave Hilton Head.

Since Saturday, my family and some of my brothers' friends have been vacationing in Hilton Head!  We have been having an absolutely wonderful time and I think I'd rather die than leave here.  The weather has been amazing, I've gotten just the right amount of sun without getting burnt, and I've been able to spend some great quality time with the best fam in history!  I'm going to do a longer post on HHI with pictures, but I just wanted to write a quick update to share some amazing news with y'all!

I GET TO TEACH BIOLOGY IN THE FALL!

My AMAZING principal emailed me today and informed me that as of right now, I have two periods of earth science and one period of biology for this upcoming fall semester!  And starting second semester, I'll get TWO periods of biology and one of earth science!  This news has seriously made my day, and I am so thrilled to get the opportunity to teach my favorite/the best subject out there. :) Since biology is the only specific high school science class that is mandated by strict standardized test scores and graduation requirements, it is not often that a first year teacher is given the opportunity to teach it.  Needless to say, I feel incredibly blessed that my school has enough confidence in my teaching abilities to give it to me!  God is truly at work in this situation!  I am so excited to begin planning units with my co-workers, and am really looking forward to what the Lord is going to do this school year!

God is making some huge moves in my life right now.  It's super scary, but I know that it's for my best and for the work that He wants to do through me.  I can't wait to watch how He touches the lives of my students. :) My prayer is that I am able to be the best witness to His glory that I can be.  I am so incredibly thankful and humbled by His mercy and faithfulness.  It is truly amazing. :)
