when the light bulb goes off

Man, it has been a great week. I have spent two days on the road, okay well not on the road but I have been able to spend some quiet time in the car as I travelled to see two student teachers. I love my job. I get to spend time in the classroom, the gym, other peoples gyms, and it is just awesome. This week I have watched two special guys teach. They were awesome. Not that I doubted they would be but it is so cool to see hard work pay off. Sometimes when you are teaching you feel like no one is listening. you are so passionate about what you are talking about and sometimes it feels like it falls on deaf ears. Well, this week was great because I saw two wonderful student teachers. There hard work is paying off. the kids love them, the cooperating teachers love them, and that makes me proud. Gosh, kind of like a proud mom. Ok, maybe that is a stretch but it does feel good to see the product of your hard work. When the light bulb turns on and stays on for a long time.

Way to go guys! Although you won't read this (mainly because you don't know how to get here) I am proud of your accomplishments.
I am blessed to have such a good job. Many times I hate it or am frustrated by it but I really have some awesome majors.

I'm glad you started a blog, Patrice. I'll be sure to check in on you from time to time.
That's awesome about your job. I think it's neat to see how God fulfills each of us in different ways...and I can relate, to an extent. It's good to see people reach their potential!
