@jasonkovacs Just wait till they start sending credit card applications to your 18 year old.

Time for my favorite end-of-school year tradition:

I write an email thanking amazing teachers for all they’ve done for our kids and name several specifics that made a difference in their learning.

And I CC the principal.

@jasonkovacs Entire churches do this, all at once. Very cool.

@BethMooreLPM Your writing in your memoir was brilliant. Truly. So glad you are writing a novel.

@Markins Very positive! My school put on a few of the musicals (my dad once played Psalty!) and we listened to the songs all the time. Many are still in my head.

@babyfeverbabe A Little Princess and The Secret Garden (esp. if you can pull off a Yorkshire accent!)

@collinhansen Have them over for dinner. A lot.

@TiffaniMarie483 We had 3 in a bedroom for a while. They loved it! I let them chat before they fell asleep. No one ever got afraid of the dark.

@philvischer The fact that Wells Fargo sends my 20-year-old daughter credit card applications makes me want to close my account.

@herbitter @racheljwelcher I have this question too. Like, what if you refer to a scene from Narnia but don't quote it?

[Amy Medina @AmyEMedina]

@racheljwelcher WHAT???
I had no idea.

[Amy Medina @AmyEMedina]

@theramblingfool People take books out of mine all the time! And if certain books sit in there too long, I remove them.

[Amy Medina @AmyEMedina]

@racheljwelcher Oh sweet baby girl, you need to move to California. I planted seeds this morning. Tell your mom.

[Amy Medina @AmyEMedina]

@BethMooreLPM I have so much respect for you. You give me hope.

[Amy Medina @AmyEMedina]

@1followernodad Or when they want you to sing along and you don't know the song.

[Amy Medina @AmyEMedina]

@techguy @MrDanielBuck Yep. Me too. They finally gave up this strategy and instead told me that I either eat what's on the table, or I didn't eat. Sometimes I chose not to eat and was not traumatized by this. I survived. I eventually grew out of my pickiness.

[Amy Medina @AmyEMedina]

@racheljwelcher Sounds like you need to offer her a contract.

[Amy Medina @AmyEMedina]

@drantbradley I've been a missionary for 20 years and technically, I get paid for it. I raise funds but I still have a salary appear in my bank account every month. It sounds like you are saying that only those in vocational ministry are called?

[Amy Medina @AmyEMedina]

@drantbradley Can being an accountant or plumber or fire fighter, done to the glory of God, be part of the good works God has prepared for someone to do?
