Teacher material?

One of the children I teach brought these tiny acorns for me- aww how sweet- of course my heart melted when he said, with the most enthusiastic voice, jumping up and down, "I brought these JUST FOR YOU!" I love these kids! I asked someone later if that constitutes me as a teacher, when the kids bring things in- just for me. :)

Pray I'm that enthusiastic in finishing out the semester- its been a rough one but I'm hoping to finish strong! I'll need it... thanks everyone! Back to studying
Have a great week!

a whirlwind week in review (blessings only)

I'll post more of my thoughts later but for now here are bullet points of blessings for the week:

*The potential cold/allergies are gone for the most part
*Vitamins work wonders-even if I do have to take 7 of them ;)
*Started the new job with some great people- it was a long night with info overload-but good
*Placed at ND and have been in communication with some wonderful people
*Met with a new friend who I've learned so much from- what a fun night Christi!
*Some new photography opportunities
*A freshly cleaned/waxed car (shown below) Thanks Mom for the help!*The day I couldn't finish an assignment the prof didn't have us turn it in (whew)
*Butterflies (the significance is for another post)
*Transition to yet another new busy schedule-the vitamins will help with lack of sleep
*Spending time with the Conner & Kyle who are just getting over pink-eye (hopefully I won't get it from them!)
*A day off-today!

I have a lot to be thankful for!

Teaching...

"A child's life is like a piece of paper on which every person leaves a mark."
Chinese Proverb

I will be starting my teaching at the ECDC at Notre Dame a week from today! It was a rough start- long story. But I'm finally placed and ready to begin! I think it will be worth getting up (extra) early for!

Thanks to everyone who prayed! God chose where I was to be placed and it was between ND & St. Mary's both were going to be great opportunities!

Have a great day!
