My Greek Wonder!

I am quite proud of my Greek wonder boy!  He has worked so hard since last summer at Greek spending hours on vocab and doing exegetical work on the NT.  So, his hard work finally paid off and got an "A" in his last Greek exegesis class!  I thought I was happy at the end of last summer when I was no longer a "Greek widow", but I was so happy and proud when he told me today when he visited me at school.  Getting an "A" in Dr. Harris' class is almost unheard of; she is a wonderful and brilliant teacher, but an extremely hard grader.  But by expecting a lot of out of your students, you'll get a lot out of them if they want to do well.  Good job baby boy! Now, onto finishing your Hebrew!

Now, I will share a little about my grade as well.  I was pleasantly surprised to see that I had earned an "A" as well in my Spanish class.  I get pretty stressed about classes and tests, so if you know me, I was freaking out a little bit.  But, after doing really well on the speaking exam, I was hoping for a good turnout.  I'm continuing to study my vocab until I have another class in the fall, but it was good encouragement after not having Spanish for awhile.  This summer, I should also get some Spanish practice as I plan to work with a ministry through my church.  This ministry goes to a nearby horse racetrack and reaches out to Hispanic families through VBS,  teen abstinence teaching, adult ESL, and other great activities.  I'm planning on doing the ESL, but would also enjoy helping with the teen ministry.  It'll be fun to use what I have learned, learn even more, and reach out to others!
