The end of the school year is fast approaching and I couldn’t be more thankful. Life is so busy! It never seems to slow down (except in the summer). I need time to regroup and relax. I know folks that aren’t in the education business think we’re pretty wimpy since we “ONLY” work 9-10 months out of the year. But, I’d have to say…..if you worked with teenagers everyday and put forth what it takes to make an impact on their lives…..you might need a little time off too!
It’s hard work! Of course it’s not brain surgery….but it is heart molding and that’s very important to someone’s forever. Right? I can remember the teacher’s that influenced me over the years. I’m so thankful that God put them in my life. I’d like to think that they would be proud to know I turned out as well as I did. Even though, it may have looked hopeless! 🙂
I’ve taken the day off today. I don’t usually do that but I really needed it. The weekend was jammed pack full and my in-laws are visiting. I didn’t want to miss spending a little time with them. They haven’t been able to come up for the last few years and we’re loving having them here.
Time flies.
Let’s hope…..the next 31 school days does just the same!
