Just as an update...we started school again on Aug. 13 and the kids came the 20th. And by "we" I mean it, Brock has taken the assignment of the MS Math teacher at Arapahoe and I'm working in my technology gig. Needless to say, he has his work cut out for him and I am enjoying my freedoms and less stress. Our school never ceases to amaze me, as our Superintendent told me today, "Imagine a school in absolute distress, and then multiply that by 10". We are in a world of hurt from poor record keeping from past administration and directors, poor technology upkeep, and people flat not doing their jobs. However, we now have a great Superintendent who is giving it an honest effort, who realizes the issues, and is willing to take a stand and get things headed in the right direction. I'm motivated by anyone who has a passion to do the right thing. Luckily, our school is filled with many outstanding people and that I why I go everyday. (Brock is still wondering what he has gotten himself into.) The kids are needy...who said we needed to go overseas to find a mission and serve? We have cultures in distress HERE!
Brock is helping coach cross country and preparing for his next big hunt. I am starting my new semester of master's classes and preparing for the baby. (He is due November 30th.) Life is good.

Hi Tan,
Hope all is well with the Kislings, besides maybe a little shell-shock for the Brockster. I'm so proud of you guys, and so thankful 'what's his name' is back as superintendent. You guys are "missionaries," make no bones about that. Mother and I are headed for a little roadtrip to New Mexico tomorrow, her thing is that we're going near the Zuni & Navaho reservations to shop for jewelry. love, han
