Every time I think that I have a handle on things there is always something else thrown my way.

I have come to realize that teaching is challenging, exhausting and one of the most exciting things I have every committed to. The expectations are overwhelming at times. The ray of light and hope are the students. Despite the few who just do not want to be in class period; the kids make it all worth it. I appreciated your honesty. Just remember, count it all joy and pray at all times. You will make it through. Happy ThanksgivingFredahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01678624329203796929noreply@blogger.com
