4th week of school!

So today marks the end of another week. I cannot believe how much I love my kiddos and how well behaved they are. Who would've guessed two years in a row.  Of course I still make plenty of mistakes, sometimes I believe I am too lenient, while other times I am too nit picky. Somehow the kids still seem to smile and enjoy coming to school, though I'm sure that had little to do with me. Today I had a great day with one of my lower students. He had struggled on labeling sentences the day before and so  I reviewed it in class and then went over it with him during recess. He got 100% correct. I showed him the difference and talked about how much his brain had grown. Later on in the day, he finished a history paper without help and while turning it in remarked how he used his brain and was proud of himself. 10 years is such a fun age. Another kid keeps calling me Mrs. Nussbaum, and today at dismissal he corrected himself and had this silly little grin on his face, that you can't help but love. I don't know how I ended up with the coolest job and get to work with the best people. May God continue to love the kids through me and may I never forget, that it is Him and not me who is making the true difference.
