Look forward and back....

So this end of the year stuff is starting to hit me. As I was able to see my last years students and then watching this years go I have to just think we got through it. These last few weeks with my students as well as some parents has been really hard. Then also the up and down changes happening with my job I thought I was going to fall apart. But with the help of the amazing staff I had people to help me through it as they complimented me, held my hand or hugged me when I cried, and helped with the battles. So right now it hits me that tomorrow is my last day with them and the tears are flowing. Im the baby at my school and they have truly been a family to me and taught me so much. This was my first teaching job and I dont think I will ever forget these two years and especially this staff. As much as I know change is good and happens for a reason it saddens me that if Sacramento does go through I will be at another school. I am working to be optimistic about all parts of my life and it is part of what gets me through the day. But it always goes back to the people in your lives and once again I can say, I have been blessed.

Whenever you start to cry, think about the punk kid whos mother yelled at you. That should make you angry enough to not want to cry. You are a brave woman to be a teacher! I'm rooting for Sacramento.

I will miss the kids and all but for sure not their parents. Oh yea and I had another one chew me out. Really what is hitting me is how much I am going to miss the staff. Im rooting for Sacramento too but I dont know what the Lord has in store for me.
