What am I thankful for?

This time of year, we all should be stepping back and thinking about what it is we are thankful for.

What are ten things that I am thankful for this school year?


  • I have a GREAT group of sixth graders that always keep me on my toes.
  • Coworkers that feel the same stresses that I do and listen to me vent.
  • Those little notes and emails every once in a while that reaffirm that I'm reaching SOMEBODY and they even appreciate it.
  • Seeing the look on that one student's face who has been struggling all year, but now is FINALLY GETTING it!
  • Hearing the kids yell, "No!  Don't stop!" when I put the book mark into my read-aloud book and close it.
  • Hugs from the former students that walk by in the hallway.
  • Hearing, "you're not old, your just older" from a former student that came by to pick up a sibling.
  • Vacations....I won't lie....I enjoy them, too.
  • My daily workout - I am in a MUCH better mood walking through those school doors after I have done this for myself.
  • Carpooling every once in a while with a great coworker.
What are YOU thankful for this school year?
