Sometimes it's easy to forget why you're doing something. After 4 and a half years of school, I've almost but gotten to the breaking point of wondering if I've chosen the right path for my life, if education is where I want to spend the rest of my days. It's amazing when God overshadows your doubts in the form of a special second grade classroom full of twenty-one boys and girls that totally change who you are.
Yesterday was my last day at my first student teaching placement, and as I walked down the hall and slowly opened the door, with the lights turned out and 21 little voices screaming, "SURPRISE!," I knew that I was exactly where I should be. Changing their lives is what I want to do. They left me with a scrapbook of precious pictures and letters from each of them, a gift certificate to the Parent Teacher Store, and a million memories I will never forget...

Making Mardi Gras Masks Was a Blast...

These Boys Sleeping on the Schoolbus Is An Image I'll Never Forget...

Even the Wild Ones Get Sleepy After Field Trips...

Every Class Has A Million or Two Angels...

My Last Day Will Be Hard to Forget.
