Dear God,

Are you there, God? It's me, Middle School. Every day the students come and spend seven hours focused on anything but learning. They judge each other, whispering behind folded hands and pointing when they think I don't see. Giggles slip out when someone leaves a room and hearts break in the hallway. Everything is a Big Deal. Are you there, God? Do you notice when they cry and laugh and blame and lie? I hope you're there. They need you.

Amen

Love Lindsay

Scorpios unite! in this life and the next.

just another manic monday

Dear God,

Right now, my classroom is orderly, peaceful, ready and waiting for the students to arrive. Please keep an eye on them, as they navigate the maze that is middle school. Please keep an eye on me, as I try to do the same in high heels.

Amen.

Love Lindsay

oh duh

Dear God,

Sometimes, it's not as complicated as it looks. Sorry I forgot to look for you. Next time, I'll do better.

Amen.

Love Lindsay

Dear God,

I feel bad for boys. All they can ever hope to be is the icing on the cake. I really can't thank you enough.

Amen

Love Lindsay

Dear God,

Miles and miles and miles.

Amen
