Saying Thanks
On this National Teacher's Day, I salute all of those people who have the courage to willingly invite some 20 noisy, over-energectic, germ filled kids in to their classroom; and attempt to educate them. Better you than me! :)
When You Thought I Wasn't Looking
When you thought I wasn't looking, you displayed my first report, and I wanted to do another. When you thought I wasn't looking, you fed a stray cat, and I thought it was good to be kind to animals. When you thought I wasn't looking, you gave me a sticker, and I knew that little things were special things. When you thought I wasn't looking, you put your arm around me, and I felt loved. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw tears come from your eyes, and I learned that sometimes things hurt--but that it's all right to cry. When you thought I wasn't looking, you smiled, and it made me want to look that pretty too. When you thought I wasn't looking, you cared, and I wanted to be everything I could be. When you thought I wasn't looking--I looked...and Wanted to say Thanks for all those things you did when you thought I wasn't looking.
