This week: three short pieces stitched together that we hope will prompt a little thanksgiving, and will give you a word of encouragement for the work you are called to do as an educator. This episode includes a section we snipped out of our previous episode in which we interviewed our friend, Lynn Swaner. (See episode 099 - it’s a really good one!) It also includes two short pieces from Dave’s now-defunct blog that we hope will give you a little boost. Also, it’s been an insane couple of weeks between a few of us teaching an overloaded schedule this semester as well as some travel a couple of us needed to do. So…we hope (and plan!) to be back to record a full episode for you all soon!
