New School Year and Disappearing Land. . .

We have started the new Aguila Christian Academy school year, one week ago.  It was a CRAZY day, children everywhere!  Parents everywhere!  Teachers everywhere!  Dogs everywhere!  The biggest hit of the year so far are the lockers we have this year.  We found some old lockers, repainted them and they are all the rave.  The kids find any excuse to go and put something in their lockers.

I asked one of our new students yesterday, in 3rd grade, if she likes school.  She said, "I LOVE it!"  Awesome! 

We have students everywhere, there is never an empty room or space during the day, and the bathroom. . . it is never empty ( which means the kids have learned not to wait til the last minute to go.  . . )! 

In other news, the land is disappearing!  The lake is rising, and I predict that by Friday, I will have to wear rubber boots to get to my stairs, everyday it rises several inches.  It is amazing.  Fortunately, I am the only one it will affect directly because the other homes are either on higher land or they have a retaining wall.  The good news is that my home is on the second floor, so it only affects me when I leave the house!  I will be an island!

Prayer Requests:
Pray for the students as they get into the rhythm of the school, that they do not loose their enthusiasm.
Pray for that we can raise support to build a much needed addition to the school in the future.
