Joy

Today I had 5th and 6th grade literature. This is the third time I have had this age group, and it is fun to be able to be normal (not the 'b' word) with them and have them still obey me. Since they are more comfortable with me they asked me lots of questions today: 'What's my favorite color', 'do you have kids', 'why is your name funny and where does it come from'... and so on. It was too funny. I just don't know how anyone couldn't love teaching. I love it. It brings out a joy I have never experienced before. After being in a Christian school, I don't know if I could go public. I love sharing my faith and learning things from 6-13 year olds. The Lord is teaching me so much through this experience. I have also begun to make friends at school, which is a huge answer to prayer. I know it is not perfect, but I would so love to teach at this school. I have definitely fallen in-love with it. God is so good.

Tomorrow I am going to Washington D.C. to be with my love. :) This time apart has begun to take a toll on me... I'm ready for it to be over now.
