My Christmas Vacation Report

It is only January 9 but we are already finishing our first week of school. Classes, events, and meetings are going at full speed.

My Christmas vacation report in short is this. The break was very relaxing. I spent much quality time in my recliner watching way too many football games and eating way too many Christmas cookies and candies. The best part of it was having the whole family together (including Cyndi back from college) and spending time with each other. I was gone for two days to Chicago—that premier winter destination!—to speak at an InterVarsity Christian Fellowship conference, but otherwise did very little work. It was a true break!

I can’t say that I was completely ready to come back to the office on Monday morning. But it only took the sight of students filling the atrium again to remind me of why I’m so thankful to be here. I loved my break, but it’s good to be back.
