Summer 2025 is coming to an end over here and I felt a nudge to give it a spot on the feed. I’m grateful for: slower mornings with Jesus, hot coffee - IYKYK, enjoyable workouts during which I didn’t have to obsess over what time it was, getting to be a part of the GYTO magic alongside old and new teacher friends, lots of sunshine ☀️, countless 20K step trips to Cedar Point during one of which I ran into the Capotosta crew 💚, a trip to the beach with my family that included some stunning sunrises, an unforgettable trip to Riviera Maya with great company and the best service I’ve ever experienced, meeting and getting to know my sweet new 2nd grade teammates 🥰, and for getting to continue to use my gifts to lead worship🫶🏻🥹 Summer isn’t the easiest season for me (the silence can be TOUGH and your girl thrives on routine) so I’m ready for the new school year to get under way. But I’m definitely going into it with gratitude for the last several weeks of sweet, sweet summertime ☀️

Still trying to process (and still attempting to recover from) my week with these magic maker GYTO presenters. I’m so humbled to stand beside them. So in awe after having the opportunity to learn from them. And so grateful for each and every one of them. (plus a few not in this picture🩷) They’re all kind. They’re all passionate. They’re all encouraging. And they’re all on a dang mission to use their beautiful gifts to change this world one teacher and, in turn, one student at a time. 🩵🖤

Guys. I’m just going to leave this here. 😅😍🔥
