Love/Hate

I am really tired today. Really. Really. Tired.

I have such a love/hate relationship with teaching. I feel bi-polar sometimes, I really do. Today was definitely a love/hate day.

During language arts with the 5th graders today a little girl came up to my desk and handed me a folded note. It said,

Mrs. (Sorry),
Thank you for being an awesome teacher.

You give us candy every Friday when we don't get to the end of STOP, and you don't give us a lot of homework.

You are my favorite teacher in the whole world.

Samantha

p.s. Thank you for tutoring me on Thursdays!

Oh my gosh. So sweet.

During that same class period Samantha got her feelings hurt by a classmate and ended up in tears. But, that is a another story for another day.

What did I say? Oh yes.. I truly love/hate being a teacher.
