"You know, transition is rough and there's a lot of things we really miss from home. But she really likes your class and she really likes you, and that just makes things so much easier." - The father of a new student.
In a week that has involved sitting in vomit, grading a blood smeared assignment, and cleaning throw-up off the sidewalk outside my classroom (not the same as the vomit I sat in!), it's encouraging comments like this that keep me going and remind me of why I do what I do.
(Also, I'm three for three this week in terms of bodily fluids. Can't wait to see what gross thing I get to touch on Thursday!)
