Lastly,
Thank you, Thank you, Gale for such a wonderful, informative afternoon at the Educational Mixer.  We went to 6p.m. instead of 4p.m.  Below are some of the ladies gratitude that they expressed.  It was very informative and I video tapped and will be putting some of the information on our blog (when I figure it out, LOL).  Let’s continue to be our sisters’ keeper.

Thank you, Liana, for creating the space for us today.  It was great to be among so many positive and insightful women educators this afternoon. I wish all of you the very best as you pursue your passions and dreams. Let’s please lift each other up in prayer and support as we each continue upon our own journeys.

Good morning, I just wanted to let everyone know that I left our meeting yesterday full and with a reinvigorated purpose. I am so thankful for the opportunity to have been amongst you all and I look forward to our follow-up sessions. A special thanks to Dr. Gibson, Mr. Gayle and Liana. On another note, let’s all touch basis via email every now and then to share our personal stories getting to our goal. I think this will be a good avenue for us to stay motivated. ‘Til next time.
