Yesterday, I was challenged to find the GST in my classes, since things are kinda crazy there and I've been having a few rough moments. So today, I took the challenge and this is what I found:

- 5th grade: the students being able to be independent workers and having some extra time to prepare myself for the day
- 1st grade: a new student, who understands some English and seems super sweet; being able to be a bit stricter today to enforce some more rules (I don't like doing this!). AND joining them at the end of the day for dance time :)
- 4th grade: really good listeners and helpers
- Primary: being able to do silly little things with them and having them love every minute!
- 3rd grade: this class is brand new as of this week, but so far they seem like really good kids and good listeners. I'm curious to see if they stay as quiet as they have been!
- 2nd grade: being content to read and look at books and not being super rambunctious today

I wanna end with a challenge for you. Maybe you are going through a rough patch and struggling with things in your life. Try finding grace in the small things in your life, especially in those uncomfortable and not so fun areas of your life!

Welcoming strangers into my home

For 16 weeks now, we have had a young refugee couple from Syria living with us.

As the refugee crisis really started to explode here, facebook was buzzing with articles, videos, pictures, etc. of the situation. I read a lot. I saw a lot. I was moved. I was troubled. But what could I do? I had a three year old and one year old at home.  ... I could teach some German. But when?   ... I could donate clothes and other items that were needed. But that didn't seem like enough. ... I could give money. But I wanted something more tangible.  I would put my youngest to bed and during those days, she needed lots of TLC in order to get to sleep. I kept thinking about the refugees and how t...

6. chair

Z is loving her new "chair"- no more laying around in the buggy for this little one. {unless of course she's napping} She loves looking around and taking it all in. I love being able to see her better this way and laugh together. Just today I got stopped at the grocery store by a woman that asked me if I knew how adoringly my baby was looking at me.  It was a strange, yet funny and sweet, experience...very un-Austrian.
