On Thursday I found out that I will be the fourth grade teacher this year! I was originally going to be teaching third grade in the morning and fifth grade in the afternoon, but now I have a class of my own. I am thrilled to finally have curriculum, materials, and a finalized class list in my hands -- I'll have 7 fourth graders and will add 9 third graders in the afternoon. I have spent the past 2 days getting the room in order (pictures coming soon). Even with all of these preparations, it's a little surreal that I am going to be teaching in just over a week!
This week I have also enjoyed a tour of all the BFA dorms, several walks in the gorgeous Black Forest, an evening in Basel with new staff, and a day in Freiburg. Indeed every day is an adventure!

In the midst of the challenges to be flexible always, you have Been Fortunate Always! haha There is much to be thankful for - the Lord's wonderful provision, two awesome apartment-mates, and a class to call your own. May you shine His light everywhere you go and show the love of Christ to everyone you meet.
