Life is Good!

This is not just an endorsement for a company - it's an endorsement for a deliberate choice I have made to look for the good, the encouraging, and the quirky in my life.

thoughts at term end


Today was a very hard day for my grade 11s and 12s. Next week they write final exams, and so today students wrote chapter/unit tests in Chemistry and Biology. This job would be easier if all assignments and labs were done carefully, corrected to 100%, and then submitted. However, procrastinators abound, so work is late.
This happens every semester. Maybe it is me that never learns.

Anne Voth Woloschuk 1912 - 2013

June of 2007
Christmas 2010
Grandma Anne had a gift for inclusivity. She never met a grandchild , great grandchild , or great-great grandchild she didn't love. More importantly, she never met a friend of those children that she didn't turn into a grandchild. She loved us all, prayed for us, sponsored our mission trips, listened to our school programs, and fed us whenever she could.
When she could no longer remember our names she still wanted us to know that she loved us. She didn't love because of deeds we did or trait of character we possessed. Instead she loved because we were hers. I learned much about God's love from seeing it in action in Grandma.
I have been so blessed to be her grandchild for 33 years.
