Jiggling the nerves out

I ran in to Cal and Sar (Uncle and Aunt) at Target the other day. They were like warm bread. I gave Sar a hug, losing myself in her fur coat, and Cal a side arm squeeze. Their smiles reminded me of hope and peace and faith. Their smiles reminded me that my worries were irrelevant to Love. Their smiles made me sigh.

I taught gym today. They were good classes, and the teacher had set them up so well - the students were so good at solving problems themselves, and the games were so cute. We started off with a warm-up, "Around the Horn", where I played music and each student had a chance to come up with some crazy action as a "warm-up". It was so clever and fun. Students would jiggle their arms, or dance crazily, or just jump up and down. They were getting out energy, practicing creativity, and we were all grinning and laughing. That's my kind of gym.
