So I only have 1.5 days left of my first year as a teacher. 1.5 days... and I don't know how I feel about it. I'm excited for the summer and to have a year under my belt, but looking at the kids, it breaks my heart to know that in a little bit they will no longer be a part of my life and slowly I will fade from their memories and them from mine. They have been the fulcrum point of my life for the past year and it will be strange from seeing all of them everyday to not seeing them at all.
Today was Camp Selah and I was a little nervous about it being chaotic, but it actually was pretty fun. We got to ride go-carts, and watching some of them drive was pretty scary. We also got to play volleyball, archery, go to the lake and some other fun things. Sometimes during the day, I did stop and look out at the kids and their goofiness and realize how much I truly love each and every one of them. They are far from perfect, but they all have amazing qualities and are really trying to be good people. Watching them does make me feel relieved about the next generation.
I'm curious if I will cry on the last day or not...I guess I will find out...
