Ticket for Survival

Get home throw Kayak in the front water with mask and snorkel.


try not to run over our dog which loves to go with me, but I just like to act like I'm going to leave her
After a little warm up swim I wait for her.
Then I yank in the boat with all the grace of a 400lb. ballerina
Turn sideway for a Kodak moment!

Bam! God knows how to balance the Good with the Bad. Go swimming for about an hour and I'm good to go.

thanks for every body's prayers. We have found a great church that feeds the people real food at every service, good music and solid "on my level" preaching/ teaching.

Hey, this is carol ross (atkinson).
I want to encourage you! You are being molded! or.. moulded..hmm.. not blue and fuzzy and smelly, but strong, beautiful, pliable clay in God's hands.
anyhoo. Steven and I are praying for you and so very encouraged by God that you are in the right place for great things! Keep striving for knowing God as your own Father and fall in love with Him.. He does everything.. He's got your students in His hands, yes!!!! : )

hey.. another thing is that I am encouraged and taught by you and Julie's insights and emails and prayer requests because being a parent requires the same skills as loving and "raising" your students.. I personally believe your job is harder.. but you will be a great dad some day and greater because of what you are working/trusting through.,
