@BethMooreLPM My son has a friend who, when he is going through a drive thru, responds back to the person with the same phrase. “Anything else darlin’?” “No thank you darlin’.”

Was gonna ask you younger if you find it offputting for an older woman to follow up a thank you or you have a good day, too, with an endearment as in, “Thanks, Sweetheart.” “You, too, Darlin.” But then I thought if you said yes, I’d probably not be able to stop but I’d feel bad about it.

@HSVk12 @Sam_Givhan thanks for your support of public education!

@BethMooreLPM A computer science guy, Randy Olson, put together the ultimate National Park road trip, hitting them all in about 2-3 months. matadornetwork.com/read/mapped-op…

In Teton National Park and I got a lifetime national park card—any park in the US—because I’m now officially a senior adult. I’m so happy!!!!!! Oh do not think I won’t use this baby.

@BethMooreLPM @PriscillaShirer Three wonderful teachers!

@PriscillaShirer Priscilla!!!! I love this so much!!!!!! I have a picture in my office from that weekend. Memories forever.

In order to step away from the SBC, I had to give up (by conviction) my long and happy relationship with LifeWay women’s event team. Nearly killed me. Have grieved it all like a death. God has greatly blessed this new era at LPM & is also blessing LW women. But man life is hard.

@JennylovesCam @AmandaMoJo “….teaching us a master class on standing up…”. Love this!

Six different tests, six different testing formats, six different targets for our students in the last few years. Makes it hard to measure student progress….and hard on teachers to continually pivot. @AlabamaAchieves @HSVk12 @AlaSchoolBoards #AASBSummerConference

Highly effective educators. #thegreatreengagement. @egmackey @AlabamaAchieves @AlaSchoolBoards @HSVk12 #AASBSummerConference
