Things I love about my students

The last day of the first quarter (I know, already!) seems like a good time to reflect on all the things I love about my students. Even on the hard and challenging days, there is always something to love.

  • I love when students are excited about their spelling test scores because yesterday they got 13 wrong and today they only got three wrong. 
  • I love that they say, "She has eyes in the back of her head." 
  • I love that they served so well without complaining on our recent service trip. I love that a few minutes after beginning the work, one girl exclaimed, "I never want to leave!" 
  • I love that when the disinfectant wipes are extra wet from being on the bottom of the canister, they call them "juicy." 
  • I love that if I need to step out of the room for a minute or two, I know they're in good hands with my mini-teachers. 
  • I love that they like to color. 
  • I love that they love Ramona Quimby books as much as I do. 
  • I love that since I made this poster they ask if they can make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
  • I love that they have so much to praise the Lord about (me too!).
