April Updates

Here is it, already April!  You have only a short time between spring break and end of year, but it is incredibly busy. You have spring events, field day, standardized testing, prom, graduation, and end of year grading.  Many times, our focus is on just “getting through.”  But it doesn’t have to be that way.  We can also use this time to care for ourselves and even start something new.   January doesn’t have to be the only time we start over.  Spring brings renewal and a chance to begin again.

In thoughts of renewal, what are parts of yourself that you hide in order to “just get through?”  Like the flowers poking through the snow, what are some ways that you can allow your beauty and growth come through the paperwork and responsibilities that bury you?   Try thinking about these questions:

  • What is something you love to do, but don’t have the time?
  • What are the things that you look forward to at this time of year? How can you find the joy in them?
  • What a way you can save some time for yourself to do the things you love?

Only a few weeks til the end of the year – we know you can do it!!!
