HIP HIP HOORAY?

Today I received an e-mail from a foster parent of one of my most special students that explains exactly why I wake up each morning to drive the 35 miles to work.

You were the perfect fit and were both loving and strong. You will always be remembered by us for your gift of teaching and how well you showed Brandon kindness.

Exactly why I have the most special job in the whole entire world:)
I hope your school year was as equally as blessed as mine and you made a difference in the life of at least one student. I'm hoping I did!
Happy Tuesday!
