Thank God for Teachers!

Has anyone ever had a teacher that changed their life? I never did.....until I had a daughter with autism, and I met my Piepers teacher Laurie, this is a women who was born to work with these special kids, I should say that Laurie has a small army of angels that assist her in her child whispering talents, and it is i am sure a well tuned machine of truly organized chaos.
We had the yearly IEP(individual education plan)meeting today, and anyone who has gone through this knows it can be a tough thing to go through, especially when your child does not meet the goals set, like usually happens with Pie, but these ladies make it so easy to get through, we laugh about the uniqueness of Pieper and her one of a kind quirks. And I left today feeling hopeful, and at peace about who is guiding my special little girl through her school day. I absolutely thank God for Laurie Koger everyday!!
So Thank you Laurie for your hard work and great spirit.
This is just another God thing in my life, when we were moving to Independence the only hesitation that we had was the schools, we just didn't know much about them, but like everything else in our lives, we put it Gods hands, and as always his plan is perfect, both of our girls are right were they should be, Psalm 9:10 says those who know your name will trust in you,for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you. I live by that the very best that I can.
To all the teachers out there, you do make a difference, and I want to say a thank you to all of you for what you do for all the kids out there.
Blessings to all!
