Keep The Prayers Comin'

I am still asking you to join me in lifting up the Eagleton family. Russell is awake and alert now and dealing with the understanding that he may never regain movement or be able to breath on his own. And his family is struggling daily to give him the encouragement and support that he needs while they try to take care of financial and medical decisions. Please continue to pray for a miracle for Russell and for peace and comfort for the entire family.

In the meantime, I have been trying to be the principal and assistant principal at the same time. Trying to cram in her meetings and responsibilities while still taking care of mine. I've got to say that God has totally done his "thing" at EH. I am surrounded by a great staff who are willing to go above and beyond in times of need. He has blessed me with office staff who are on top of things and have been handling problems before they even become a problem. And my counselor has been at my side, giving me a shoulder to cry on and helping me to laugh through the frustration and craziness. We are a pretty awesome team! But, man, do I miss Paula!!!! We are all trying to assure her, when she calls to check in, that everything is great - the last thing that I want her to do is to have to worry about school. But she is definitely missed, and I hope she knows that we are doing the best we can, but it is NOT the same without her. So I also ask you to pray for me . . . I am trying to fill some really big shoes, and probably not doing half as well as she would, but I want to try and keep things going as smoothly as possible. And quite honestly, at times, I feel like I am barely staying afloat trying to take care of the things that I know she would do. So I am thankful for the weekend - 2 days to rest and rejuvinate so that I can start the rat race again on Monday. How many days left until summer break?
