It's, "I get to go to work today."<br /><br />I couldn't see myself doing anything else...Teachinfourthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01624243991120542485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6995141851588869087.post-80698090323747455102011-02-17T11:41:34.231-07:002011-02-17T11:41:34.231-07:00One of my very good friends (her name is Sarah too...One of my very good friends (her name is Sarah too, awesome!) is an 8th grade teacher and I am just in AWE of her. <br /><br />I think it just "clicks" with some people, like rocket science clicks with others. <br /><br />I am very grateful for all two of the great teachers in my life - they even inspired me to be a better mother!<br /><br />Plus, it's awesome that you were able to choose to do for a living something that you actually LOVE. It's kind of like a happy ending all the time (even though I know it's still a TON of hard work).Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17118963619339572923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6995141851588869087.post-55987962466242876372011-02-16T05:43:47.708-07:002011-02-16T05:43:47.708-07:00This post touched a chord in my heart, because I w...This post touched a chord in my heart, because I was going to be a doctor. I remember realizing that teaching flowed in my blood and I could never be totally happy unless I was teaching. <br /><br />I cried when I told my parents; they laughed and said, "Good for you!"<br /><br />I homeschool now--babies, preschool, . . . right on up to 5th grade at the moment. Next year I get to expand my horizons to 6th grade.<br /><br />It is a dream of a life.Anaisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03606090702540012629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6995141851588869087.post-24788852671448349392011-02-15T22:34:57.725-07:002011-02-15T22:34:57.725-07:00You have a gift for teaching and despite its heada...You have a gift for teaching and despite its headaches, seem to still love it.
