This is my all time favorite book...right after Redeeming Love. The pictures are TO DIE FOR! The story is AH-MAZING! I will no longer be your friend if you do not read this book, and especially don't like it. =)

This goal is the reason why I have not posted in over a year. haha. I got a job within a month of applying (all thanks to God!). This has been a trying year of teaching based on the group of students I have and other situations at work. I could not have imagined my first year being this hard. However, I am putting my trust in God that there is a reason for this year. There are only 2 sets of 6 weeks until the end of the school year. I think it cannot come soon enough but I don't think I'll ever forget this group of kids. One of my students withdrew today and I really got sad. I didn't think I would miss that chatterbox (she's not the biggest one) but she is such a sweetheart and I truly got a little depressed seeing her empty desk after school.
Mysterious Benedict Society by Trenton Lee Stewart
This is such a clever series. Since I have been on such a young adult kick, I thought this would be a great addition. I have only read the first book but I love the characters, plot, conflict and seriously mature solutions. I got my mom to read the first book and she read all three books in the series within a couple weeks. She could not stop raving about the good values that are praised in this book and acted on by the main characters. There is also a website! Mom was very adamant that I visit the website and take the series to school for my students to read. Boy was she right!!!! PLEASE give this series a try!!!!!
