Perspective

I was so frustrated yesterday. I had a new teacher come to my classroom to "learn" from my experience. Jeez Louise. She asked me how long I had been teaching and congratulated me for sticking with it. My class was a train wreck. Complete humiliation. I was so down.

Even though my hair was blue today (think exploded pen tucked on my ear soaking ink into my hair) and I was in a meeting till 8pm tonight, it was a good day. I know that my kids are not perfect. In fact, my class this year is incredibly difficult. But we will be ok. And I'm thankful for the ego check. Just when you're getting cocky...

Sleep tight!
