"Mrs. Bindrup you look exactly like my 3rd Grade teacher" PS
"Oh ya? I bet she was awesome!" me
"Ya she was my second best teacher I've ever had. You are my first best teacher." PS
You know what's weird? I deal with a lot of crummy things during the day. I have some tough kids with some disabilities/ tough family lives/ in foster care/ have ADD/ have frustration problems/ I have one with a sensory problem and doesn't like the feel of paper (it sounds weird but it is real. This student's test scores are HUGELY different when he/she takes them on the computer) /I have 3 with dyslexia/ 1 reading on a Kindergarten level/ one the principal specifically asked me to watch if he brings weapons/ boys who are pretty violent during recess and I have to deal with things I wasn't around to see /and normal 10 year olds are still crazy. I am ALWAYS having to deal with something or someone. There is never really a perfect moment where my teaching life is easy breezy and all I have to worry about is teaching a good lesson, but strangely I really like it. I have moments like this previous one all the time and they make the other moments a little easier. Maybe that is how it is when you're a mom?
