Nothing to Report

It's been almost 2 weeks since I last posted something, so I figured I should let y'all know I'm still here. As you can guess from the title, I don't really have anything to say. Just waiting.

Although, I did start reading The Divine Romance. I'm really excited about it. The Lord is speaking to me and I've only barely begun.

Too Young

I found out from one of my Grade 4 students yesterday that one of my kindergarten students was killed on Thursday. He was a great kid - all the kindergarteners were. He was quadding and flipped and got choked by the handlebars. The death of a student, especially one so young, was certainly not something I had expected to hear about within my first year of teaching. My heart goes out to his family, classmates, and community. In a village that size, it really makes a difference. Having 6 students in that grade, instead of 7, will be a permanent hole.
