School Adventures

This school year has already kicked off to an incredible start and experiences that I cannot wait to have take place in the next few weeks!!! I am grateful for both of the phenomenal teachers that I'm working alongside with this year and cannot wait to get to know a lot better. They have been such a joy to be around more than anything in this world & I feel so blessed to have this year to share with both of them!!! I have only been at the school for a couple of weeks now and I am absolutely loving every single minute of that I get to be in those classrooms, with the cutest kiddos I could ever ask for in this world. I am so incredibly blessed to be at a school that is truly almost like my second home & I know that sounds a little bit strange of me to admit, but it is true in more ways than one!!! I've just loved getting the opportunity to serve other people in some capacity, has brought me so much more happiness than I can ever begin to tell you at this very moment.



Since my first year there as a high school student intern at seventeen years old, I never would have expected myself to be good with children in a classroom and trying to make the best of everything that life threw at me. I am really grateful for the way it has changed me into a better person & feeling more comfortable with going out of my comfort zone to make a person's life easier in some way or other. I am helping out in two different classes this year in third and second grade, which has been quite a transition for me from years past because I've never helped in one of the portable classrooms throughout my years at the elementary school. I have absolutely loved getting to cut things out for the teachers, whenever it's needed as well as filing assignments/grading math papers and everything else in between. 

I am probably never gonna know when things in my life will settle down and there is not anymore stressful things to be concerned about. I am determined to make the most of every situation that life throws at me during this school year as best as I possibly can do, but at the same time-- I have really continued to pray for the teacher whose still getting their feet under them. I think deep down inside they appreciate all of the help that I am able to give them whenever it's needed at any time!!! I feel confident that they are going to make it through this trial of faith and see the light at the end of the tunnel. Obviously, I am not a professional school teacher by any means whatsoever but with being one of the volunteers at the school there is only so much I can do. I believe with all of my heart, it will get better as the rest of this month goes on and everything gets to where it needs to be. As I've prayed for them continuously throughout the last couple of weeks and trying to help them feel the love of the Savior on a weekly basis...it really brings me so much peace to know that it's all gonna work out.
