I am in disbelief as I just talked to Ms. DeVaughn only four months ago. We laughed and talked and caught up and she sent me well wishes on my new endeavors. Although she couldn't attend my event she reassured me that she was very well pleased and proud of me. I thank God for allowing her to touch my life at such an early age. Please tell those who have influenced and enhanced your life that you care and appreciate them. I'm so glad I had the opportunity too talk to her and let her know she made a huge impact on my life at Peyton Forest Elementary School.

Of all the things I'm thankful for,
If I could choose one
To place above all other things
When all is said and done,
I'd choose just this: My God is there
In joy or yet in pain.
My God is there. He walks with me,
Yes, even in the rain;
Not only when the roses bloom,
Not only in the spring;
Not only when the world is gold,
The sun on everything,
But all the time-God's always there,
He's with me day and night;
I cannot wander from His care
Nor leave His precious sight.
