Cinnamon Rolls

During the year I was at Roscoe teaching 4 year old migrant children, two people visited the campus and saw me teaching there at the school. One of the people from ACU recognized me as being married to Hubert and preceded to tell the aid that worked for me. The other person with her that day was an ACU alumni who is very well known throughout the world. Anyway the school got in a uproar and told the Migrant coordinator that I had not attended any faculty meetings and therefore would not have my job the next year. Of course everyone knew that was a big fat lie and I had to find another job. H was still in ACU and I was supporting both of us at least during football season. One day Ann and I stopped in Trent for what will be another post. That year I had migrant children who were having an extra year before Kindergarten so they would have an easier time. Basically it was oral language. I'll never forget how that one person being whatever you want to call it affected my life and she was suppose to be a sister in Christ.As I said in a previous post there were those who were sent there by God to be my friend. That was also our first year of marriage,too. I was born and raised to be in a white world, but I'm black. Where my husband was born black and raised in a white world, he was more prepared for how this world is more than me. However there are so many wonderful people who entered and crossed our lives, I can't complain about one sister in Christ who caused a problem. Yes times have improved but when we were at the bottom of the world, you can go no where but up. Right???
