I like writing about every day life. I have several friends who have ministry update blogs, serious blogs, musical blogs, etc. I like that mine has a mixture of many different genres.
Yesterday I did something uncommon for me on a normal school day. I guess with it getting closer to the end of the school year and myself being ahead in the classroom I felt freedom to goof off. My students and I must have laughed and giggled for an hour yesterday afternoon. I kept joking around and saying, “Kids we have to stop laughing. There’s no fun in school.” Then they’d start a new round of laughter because they know that’s not true.
As stressful as teaching can get at times I really do enjoy it. That’s not to say I’m not ready for a two-month break because I definitely am! I like the versatility of the classroom. While I teach all the subjects every day I don’t have to teach them in the same order all the time. I can play games and sing songs with my kiddos. Best of all I can share truths about God from His Word every day. By no means am I perfect, but I’m striving toward holiness. If my students leave my classroom knowing that it’s possible to have a relationship with Christ that is alive and real then I’ve succeeded.
I just confiscated this note that one of my students wrote. It’s an acronym for me.
