In the past 9 months the world has taken two of my favorite people from me. I literally can’t breathe when I think about facing the rest of my life without them.
Brushing my teeth this morning and holding Atlas. I noticed he looked SO much like my dad today so I said to him in a cheery voice “oh my you look like grandpa Steve today!”all of a sudden his eyes got red a single silent tear fell from each eye. If that’s not a sign 😭😍
My morning meeting question of the day was “what do you want to be when you grow up?” My student thinks, and in all his sweet innocence, and complete sincerity looks at me and says “a dog!” Me too, kid. Me too. 🤣🤣
I think about them everyday…but on the eve of a new school year… I think about them just a little extra. Here’s to remembering to “choose your attitude, play, make their day, be there” and #spreadjoy along the way…and carrying them into the classroom with me ❤️❤️❤️
