It's a particularly good feeling because I was quite anxious about how this school year was going to go: new classes, longer hours, more responsibilities, new childcare arrangements and Chloe at school. But it's silly really because I do this every year and God has never failed me. It has all worked perfectly and, although work is really hectic and I am having to work a lot of evenings, I still enjoy it and it still fits in with family life.
I wanted to share with you something I am really enjoying at the moment and that is Chloe's new found love for letters and words. She was never very excited about learning them before school but now she loves it. She will find letters she recognises in books, will spend an hour drawing pictures of things that begin with each sound (which she received a house point for, proud mummy moment) and this evening she read her first word, h-a-t! I know this doesn't make her a literary genius and some others her age have been doing this for a while but I am SO proud and excited for her. I love how passionate she is about it and quite amazed at how much she has learnt on a few weeks.
That's enough boasting. In it all I am so thankful that God has turned round Chloe's experience of school from a few weeks ago and she is now enjoying it again. Thank you Father.
Ephesians 3:20-22
20 Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us,
21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
