Tuesday Truth

I have been overwhelmed by reading my 7th graders "I Believe" lists! HOLY. Some really deep stuff. Those kiddos are full of truth, if only everyone would listen!

I truly believe I have THE best gig in town. How many people get to read the hearts of so many people? I feel lucky, and I appreciate that my kiddos trust me enough to share how and what they really feel.

This is my 7th year teaching in Okanogan, and my 13th year teaching. I still pinch myself that I have the opportunity to do what I do ever day. I LOVE TEACHING!

I had to have a sub last Thursday, as I had to attend a meeting in Chelan. I had THE best substitute, thank goodness. I really respect him, and I feel so lucky when I am able to have him in my classroom, when I have to be absent. He left me the best note ever...it ended with him telling me how much my students appreciate and respect me. HAPPY MOMENT, indeed :) It's those moments of truth that define why we are in the business of teaching.

KISS!
