Being in person has brought many enjoyable moments during this school year. Some of these times have meant that I have had to be willing to be a bit silly at times. This was especially true when I was prompted to bust out the dance moves when someone bought me a Valentine’s serenade last week. Through this song, students were amazed that:
1- I would be willing to dance.
2- I perfectly knew all the words to Justin Bieber’s Baby. (Ummmmm.. I’ve know that song since the beginning. Come on!!)
3- I would allow it to be videoed and post it online.
4- That I would do it during Brennan’s class. As one of my students stated, “You danced in front of your son!!”
Although it means making a fool of myself, it is all a part of building heart relationships that lead to Gospel truths being shared with my students. God has used all four of us to be able to pour into so many people here in the D.R. From soccer games and classroom talks to Cappuccino afternoons and dancing with a Lobo, God is forming bonds to further his kingdom.
Even with Bieber in the background. Happy Valentine’s Day!!
