When you get to spend time with one of your precious former students, to watch them serve the Lord with enthusiasm and humility, to hear them speak with exceptional grace and kindness, all you can say is, “Thank You, Lord for this wonderful blessing!”
Mrs. Peets is on a college trip to take her daughter to New Aberdeen College in Charlotte, NC. Of course, she has a great book with her on the trip!
“Here I am in the Charlotte airport with my Chick-fil-A breakfast. I’m reading All the Beauty in the World, a memoir of a security guard at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.”
Today was action packed at Mid Vermont! Thanks to these amazing volunteers, the MakerSpace is organized and ready to welcome the young engineers who are itching to create, the refrigerators are spick-and-span, the bushes are being trimmed, and the elementary building is power-washed. Wow!
Thank you for serving the Lord with gladness, MVCS team, even when it is 90 degrees!
There is a lot involved with getting a classroom set up for a new school year. The fresh start is so very exciting, but it takes a whole team, from our industrious new custodian, Mr. Huston, to the tiny hands of my youngest helper this year, precious V.
I love to feature some of the cheerful servants here on the blog along the way, and here’s my first crew. You should have seen their attention to detail. The dust was flying! (And when you see her, ask B. about her fabulous science discovery, an unexpected water bottle volcano eruption that was AWESOME!)
Dragon has new posts on his blog! Check out this one about his mountain biking!

Some people think only of this when they think of New York state.
However, New York state is also this.
Summer adventure update from Mrs. D.: “We’ve been having a great weekend here in NY. Toby was dedicated this past Sunday. Yesterday we went for a DePasacreta+DeMings family hike to Taughannock falls and State Park, and I was very proud of myself for walking a whole two miles with a baby attached. We did have quite the hazy day because of the Canada wildfires, but have been enjoying our time with family. Toby has been in high spirits the past few days and is working on his yapping skills.”
Mr. and Mrs. Winter love bedtime reading with baby L! He’ll be ready for the Forty Book Challenge in no time.
The Winters went to the Boston Aquarium to celebrate their second year since coming to the States together. Mrs. Winter said, “L LOVED all the sea creatures and his first time in the big city!”
My cousin’s daughter Kiersten loves her home state so much she wanted to share a few more photos of farming on the prairie with you, as you learn more and more about the land in our country.
Mr. and Mrs. Farrell joined family in Montana this summer. They shared these photos from the lavender farm to help us learn more about the Mountain West region of the United States.
What do you wonder about Montana? How many of you have been there? It is home to the world’s shortest river as well as some of our most famous national parks. For all of you Corps of Discovery members from last year, Lewis and Clark passed through. You dinosaur lovers might also enjoy taking a look.
