Not sure why I have such a hard time hitting the "publish" button after I write a post. But here is the update I wrote after my first day of school in August. :)
...................................................................................................................................................................
Last night I was in bed before 8:00. After several weeks of meetings and getting my room together with no air conditioning I felt like last night was the first time I could lay down and relax. I made it through my first day of school as a 2nd grade teacher and loved it. Yes, I've done student teaching and a long term subbing position but this is my first class.
I just know that after all the interviews and deciding between positions that this school is where God had planned for me to be. And as I was telling my sister last night on the phone (as she laughed at me for being in bed already..) I need to remember that fact all year after some of my students "true colors" shine or we have a difficult day.
I feel so blessed to be able to teach these second graders and hope to be a light in their lives.
