Teaching is hard.  I mean, to do this well really takes a lot of work.  After some 14 years of it, you would think that I should be an expert, and that is just not the case.  Certainly, I am a much better teacher now than before, but this profession is both art and science.  What to teach evolves alongside the "how" of teaching, and there are always new discoveries that demand to be made.

I really can't think of a better profession for me.  I need a constant challenging endeavor that changes over time.  I honestly don't think much else could keep my attention for the long haul. 




So, on to my list of gratitude:

I get to work with some of the most brilliant minds (both child and adult).
I will never get bored because there is always something else to learn.
My students let me sing each day.
I can never be down for long because my students will pick me up.
My days are full of laughter.
I will never have a shortage of chocolate, mocha frapuccinos, or hugs.
I get to be there when my students say, "Now, I get it!"
My former students still visit and keep in touch.
I don't have to wonder if I am loved.

Now, you tell me, isn't this the best job in the world?
