When I grow up...

From the time I was five, I said I wanted to be a teacher. This is what administrators don't want to hear when they are interviewing teachers (so I didn't say it either) but this for me was the truth. I truly wanted to teach from the moment I knew what it was to learn and then tell someone else about it.

Well, this semester, on January 19th , I started doing what I have wanted to do since I was five. Even typing that makes me say "wow!" Really, I am a teacher?

So the point of this blog for me is to at least once a day find one thing (big or small) to be grateful for or to celebrate what happened. Right now, I am four weeks into teaching and have already realized how to do this job for the long haul or at least until God leads me down a different path, I have to be thankful everyday and look for what God did that day. Though there are a what feels like a million decisions made, issues to handle, copies to be made, and voices talking all around, I have one of the most amazing opportunities a person could be given.
