Hello there! May you find inspiration to celebrate your story, even in the middle of the muddle.
I’m the director of a professional development consortium of 30 schools in northern Indiana committed to empowering student-centered learning. I write books, articles and other stuff because I’m sure stories + teachers make the world a better place. Most importantly, I’m completely charmed by my forever family. Welcome to my corner of the world.
Discover. Play. Build. is full of resources to make teaching writers manageable and enjoyable. You’ll find video minilessons, downloadable resources and even a preview copy of my new book!
OK, so this made me tear up totally! He looks like my boys when I adopted them! I am praying for the Ayres family!
Blessings to you! Kind and wonderful. Joyful and Spirit-filled. Loving and Giving. Blessings to you all!
Wow! What a big, big day. I am so happy for you and for your family. I am glad that you were able to document the moments. It will be nice to have a balance of “ordinary” with the life-changing.
My heart is with you and your family. What joy this must bring to all of you. Linger in the moments!
Forever. That says it all, doesn't it? Your family has been in my thoughts. My heart is full. I suspect yours is spilling over a bit!
