This has been a week of many things, but being reminded of principles forgotten was at the forefront. Teri DeVaney-Bucz, our wonderful English department chair passed away unexpectedly. She was a living example of not giving in to the culture of lowering standards. She proved everyday that living a life of ideals was a life worth living. Teaching and family ARE important. Young people ARE worth shaping.
This weekend we have had the priviledge of watching/riding herd on John and Ashley's children. Rob's son Nate was with us also on Saturday. Children are a blessing and reminded me of the constant observance that is required to mold children. Our children, older and showing patience, have been a cheerful reminder that children grow up, but also young people can often do things they think they can't. Teri said that often with a smirk.
