So, here it is: Thank you, God...
-For providing relief and rest when I need it.
-For the gift of literacy and for the ability to teach literacy. Because my goal is to get children excited about words, so they can read YOUR Word.
-For the amazing role models you have put in my life.
-For people who are happy to do letters of recommendation for my credential file.
-For a successful "first" today- I did my first guided reading group. Up til now, I've just been doing running records. It went very well!
-For a mom who understands.
-For friends who never fail.
-For my amazing students. I had so much fun with them at recess today, and many are really, really warming up to me. There are fights for who will hold my hand and who will sit by me at lunch, and the hugs are getting to be so abundant.
-For an "afternoon field trip" with my students, we went and saw a university's production of Joseph And the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
-For professors who are providing me with binders full of resources.
-For not having enough space in my dorm room to hold all of my children's books.
-For a creative mind.
-For a chapel service today with my students about being "like minded" as Jesus.
-For people who have just the right words to say.
-For the amazing fall weather.
-For leaves changing to orange and red.
-For hoodies and jackets.
-For kite-making and flying with my classmates in my methods course this afternoon.
For all of this and more, God, I want to take a moment to say Thank you.
I love that not enough space for books is a blessing. :)
