Today was the last day of seminary. Just before 6am I opened the door to my classroom and found this:
In teenage-speak, I think that means I’m popular. Or, maybe it means someone has a deep burning hatred for me; I can never remember. I’m not sure who was responsible– no one in my class took credit– but we did end up with a pretty impressive three-foot-wide ball of toilet paper.
As class was ending, I decided to take a picture of the 15 students (of 17) who were here today. What a handsome bunch!
This photo more accurately captures the spirit of the class, though:
I made an attempt at an “Oscar selfie” but failed… too many people…
I have to give a big shout-out to my fellow teachers, who are amazing and have been a huge support to me all year. Thanks, Katie and Jodi!
Here we are showing a little more personality– for some reason I find it hilarious that Jesus looks so serious behind us.
I absolutely love my calling as a seminary teacher, despite the early mornings and long hours preparing. It’s mostly because I have the privilege of spending each morning with 17 amazing kids. I’m looking forward to next fall, when I get to do it for another year. (I’m also looking forward to summer vacation, though!)
