And So It Begins...

School has officially started and the first week had come to an end.  I can't hardly believe it!  This year has already started off so fast.  But, I am so blessed and thankful to be a teacher.  I love my job so much.  It's so rewarding.  There are some days that it tests my patience...but I know that's God's way of molding me!  He definitely knows my weaknesses and He uses those at the most vulnerable times in my life to help me grow.  Being a teacher is something that I definitely feel called to do.  So, it feels good to know that I am living out God's plan for my life.  Back to the new school year!  My schedule is great, my kids are great, and I love my school and the people I work with.  We have several new kiddos this year...so it will be wonderful to get to know them and be their teacher.  This is my fifth year as a teacher and I have been at Blackwell since day 1.  It is an amazing place to work...even with the 45 minute commute to and from school!  I do have to say that with the gas prices being so high...it stinks having to fill up twice a week.  But, it's totally worth every penny and mile on my car!  I'm looking forward to what this year holds and seeing my students grow and learn.  I know it will go by fast...so I want to take every opportunity that God gives me to touch their lives in a way that will inspire them to be great and challenge them to dream big and achieve their goals.  Here's to a new school year!!!
