Today I headed to Lamoni to a memorial service for a friend/mentor of mine. Sharon Carr was my mentor when I first started teaching in Lamoni. All new teachers are assigned a mentor for their first 2 years of teaching. I was blessed to have Sharon. She pushed me each day and made me think outside of the box. Her and I even planned a trip in 2006 to Italy with 17 of Lamoni high school students. We had a blast. Unfortunately, last Wednesday morning she never woke up. She will be truly missed. Her memorial service was beautiful and it was amazing to see some wonderful people that I haven't seen in a long time.
I was lucky enough to sit with my friend Brenna and her family. Her kids are growing so fast and I can't wait for them to start basketball this winter to watch a few games! Now I wish I would have taken a picture...dang!
Today I am thankful for me and all that God has given me. I have a wonderful family, great friends and faith!
