        Mary: We’d like to share a shoutout to our listeners! 

        This week’s shoutout goes to … Winnie Yip.

        She writes “Hi Mary and Tim, Praise the lord for such a beautiful morning. Hope you both are well! Just want to say that our family continues to enjoy the podcast. We are fans and my grade 7 and grade 5 look forward to it every weekend. They enjoy listening to the different content and also guessing who the students are in the bits and bytes. My grade 5 is wishing he will be interviewed by Mr. Cavey some day 😊. I also want to thank you for the links to the video series on social media. The videos are practical with helpful suggestions. I have learned quite a bit from it! Thanks Mary and Tim for all you do, not just the podcast, but for everything you are doing for middle school.. I just want to let you both know that I truly appreciate what you do! Stay warm and enjoy the beautiful day!

        Blessings,

        Winnie”
