I love being a teacher. It is an intense job though, and it requires a lot of me to be good at it. We are lucky that there are breaks built in to the calendar, because being on one's game, working with 20-30 students at a time all day is exhausting - but exhilarating. And I just can't imagine living without it.
My classes this semester are made up of super cool kids. I love to spend these days with them, learning new stuff, asking questions, and laughing our way through it all.
I am grateful for the opportunity to do this, today - and everyday.
