Thank you all so much for the calls and letters of congratulations I have received today. It looks like the word got out quickly! I am so excited to be moving into my new role as the Dean of the School of Education at Houston Baptist University. I honestly believe that this is path that I have been called to. I hope that my many wonderful friends, colleagues and my students know that the opportunity to move into this new role at HBU would not have been possible had I not acquired the depth of knowledge I gained at SHSU. Although, my excitement to move to HBU is beyond my ability to hide, leaving those who have mentored and guided me along with the students who have touched my life and taught me to be a better teacher leaves me with an empty place in my heart. I will miss my daily interactions with each of you and hope that we continue our relationships. I will miss being a part of the SHSU family, but am eager to learn from my new colleagues and create many new friendships at HBU!

And they are off!

The boys set out this morning for Alabama for student ministries camp with First Baptist Church of The Woodlands. Church camp is always an amazing experience for them. I'm so excited for them :)

It's going to be an great week full of fellowship and of course, a little fun at the beach!

National Innovative Counseling Strategies Conference!

The National Innovative Counseling Strategies Conference was today and I think our presentation went GREAT! It looks like we will add a few more schools to our study and I met some fantastic individuals who share the same passion as I do! Dr. Rose, of course, did his magic and kept our audience engaged with his stories about life teaching before SHSU! LOL!

Days like today remind me that I REALLY DO HAVE EVERYTHING I COULD EVER NEED! What a great day...despite the storms and the last minute trip to SHSU...
