Congrats Lil. I couldn't think of someone better capable to teach children. You have a sharp wit, classic humor, thoughtful intellect, and caring attitude, and I can't wait to hear all about the first group of kids who's minds you get to warp!

For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul.

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.
