Last night Patrick and I had the opportunity to get together with a future co-worker at TCIS. What a blessing it was to meet someone you will be working with for the first time and already feel like family. Ellen Sligh, came over for dinner and we got to know each other. My parents came to meet her and so did Ed and Patty Blanchard. Ellen will actually be working in the Special Ed department with me so we will be close coworkers as well.
We had a great night talking about Korea. My favorite part was realizing how connected we were through mutual friends. Being in the Alliance is a wonderful thing because it makes this huge world so much smaller. When you have all of these connections, you really feel like you have known someone for a long time even though you only met 2 hours ago.
I am so excited about this new family that we will become a part of at TCIS. It's been so neat to see how God has brought TCIS to us and we haven't even had to leave our living room yet. Here is a picture of our fun evening. Even Zachary enjoyed having Ellen over. One day she might even be his pre-school teacher!
