For the sake of the Children

As I reflect on the past 7 months of teaching at C.C. Ronnow, I soon discovered that no matter how many things I disagree with in a school, bottom line-I adore the children! There is a strange dichotomy between being an impassioned school teacher and a mom-one does it all for the sake of the children. I never realized while growing in in the suburbs, playing house with my dolls and "teaching" summer school in backyard during the summer, just how much God created me for children. All I have to do is look at a child and an electrical fuse lights me up inside like a Christmas tree adorned in all of its splendor. I have found no greater joy than nurturing children every single day of my life! If I could not touch the life of a child each and every day, then I honestly think that I would die! I am so going to miss my precious 3rd graders. I love you Michelle, Rachell, Felipe, Dulce, Brandon, Juan, Maria, Julian, Laisha, Jessie, Catherine, Jasmin, Alex, Jesse, Renny, Joanna, Brian, Alicia, and Jacqueline. You are the hidden treasure in the earth, and you will always be the hidden treasure in my heart!
