Today I am thankful for my job. I realize that in this economy, I am really lucky to have a job. I am also blessed to have a job that I enjoy...that says a lot! I really love it when I am teaching a concept and I can actually see it when the kids understand something. It is almost as if there is a cartoon-like lightbulb over their head that suddenly lights up. Their faces brighten up with understanding, and I feel so awesome knowing that I am helping them learn something that will make their lives easier. Plus, I love being able to interact with children of all ages. They are all so different, but it is easy to see (even when they are being...difficult) that they are special...I love it!
