Passion

It is amazing what a week can do! I've been reflecting on why I started teaching this week. And I've realized that I've been teaching since I was little. I remember my sister making fun of me for thinking that I knew everything and that I was smarter than everyone. I remember always being the one people would ask for help. I also remember, even in elementary school, being a teacher's helper. I think I was just always drawn to this profession but just chose the long "scenic" route to find it.

So I now find myself in LOVE with teaching kindergarten. I cannot see myself in any other grade level. I love seeing that light switch turn on and the reading begin. I love their faces when I tell them what a great job they just did on a paper or project. I love when I see them excited about reading. Passion for kids doesn't even begin to say how much I enjoy my job or why I love my job so much. Every day is a new day and everyday can bring a new surprise! My passion is to help the children of today be the best they can be for the future of our world.
