The Little Things
Today I stopped by the middle school to see my first and favorite students before break. I planned it so I could see both 7th and 1st period classes (1st is also advisory so they return at the end of the day). The first student I saw ran to hug me and proclaimed, “Ms. G! You’re the best Christmas present ever!”
Fifty kids all wanting to fill me in on everything they’ve done since they last saw me and hugs galore. In all sincerity, I can say that I can’t remember the last time I felt so loved. Heart = melted.
Now when I’m having a bad day and second-guessing myself or someone’s asking me for the millionth time why I want to teach, I’m going to think of those faces and name fifty reasons.
