Almost every day I feel blessed to do a job I love - TEACHING! We all know that paperwork, testing, and "other duties as assigned" can make our job tedious, but I don't dwell on those aspects. For the most part - the teaching my students part - I LOVE IT!
Occasionally, I feel truly special - that the connection I've made with a kiddo isn't just something I feel. That it's something that we SHARE. It's gonna sound like "favorites" but I don't make this connection with every kid, there are kids that stick with me.
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE all my littles - I remember every kiddo in my class. You just can't FORCE the bond, it happens - often unexpectedly.
So I came back to a gift & this note:
The love & thought behind this gift melts my heart. I love this little guy & just feel a bond with him, this note confirms that the feeling is mutual! I love his family too - amazing people, raising amazing boys! I can only hope to be the youngest's teacher too!
In case you were wondering...here's my "Oma scarf" in Husky blue!
Hope your days are as full as my heart!
