Back to School.

Today I went to school. Not college, but elementary school to observe. Third graders have stolen my heart. I love them.

I was nervous this morning, running late as usual and running out the door with lunch and papers in hand. When I walked into the classroom, I was greeted by the teacher, Ms. Watson. She is so nice and so honest. This is something that I value. The kids are so well behaved, let me tell you. And if there is any "rowdiness", she cures it with one simple look or request. I want my class to be like this.

It's amazing to see the different personalities of the kids and the development. Sitting in the back of the classroom, I had the perfect view of what was going on with the kids. All of them are spunky and eager to learn. This excites me. The kids seemed excited for a visitor to be in the class with them. I kept getting glances during the class and I even got to help with their times tables. Yes, I did. :)

So tomorrow I go back. Not so nervous this time. I'm ready. After today, I realized that this is where I'm suppossed to be and I'm glad. There's something reassuring about knowing that you are where you're suppossed to be in life. God has a plan for everyone and I like to think that I have partially discovered his plan for this time in my life.

Until next time.
