I just got back from my first highschool football game in years. Man, it is truly amazing how some things never change, huh? While I was there, I had a few thoughts. My first thought was what I just stated. You could see all the cliques and how people wouldn't even look at each other. I guess there is something about being a teenager that makes it impossible for there not to be drama. My second thought was how grateful I will always be for my mom sacrificing so much to put me through private school. I have so much respect for those of you who went to public school and had the strength to be salt and light there. I don't think I would have had the courage, strength or perserverance to do so. The language alone would have done me in. Third, it occured to me what a spoiled generation we are currently raising. One out of every 10 kids DIDN'T have a cell phone. There were kids in line who had a whole lot more money on them than I did. And listening to their conversation about what they did during the summer or what they are going to do over the weekend, I don't understand how parents pay for it all. And my final was that my kids aren't always like that. I have seen them in public and private and I know that they can be different.
Please keep MS and SS in your prayers. They are both searching and struggling to find Christ. I know that God has His timeline and that it will happen. I would love to see it happen soon, but Satan has a pretty good hold on certain areas of their lives right now.
Hope you have a great day!

I survived in public school by hanging out with my private school friends. Thanks for that, by the way.
Sometimes, Amy, you really give me more credit than I deserve.
