U.S. Teacher Appreciation Week!
05 Tuesday May 2020

This post was originally published in 2018, but I thought it was worth sharing again during this year’s Teacher Appreciation Week, especially given current events.
I was blessed to have several incredible teachers during my childhood, but it was only as an adult that I realized how underappreciated they are. In honor of these tireless workers who take joy in passing their knowledge onto young inquisitive minds I’m sharing the following quotes. And for those of you who are teachers I’d like to personally say Thank You.
Thank you for working long hours.
Thank you for working for not enough pay.
Thank you for buying supplies for your classrooms and students out of your own paycheck.
Thank you for not giving up despite increasing demands from parents and society.
Thank you for inspiring us to be the very best we can be!

Hi everyone. I know I still haven’t made a full return to blogging yet (I’m still working on some new health issues) but I wanted to make sure I wished you all a Happy New Year. Stay safe tonight and enjoy the festivities!
For last year’s words belong to last year’s language
And next year’s words await another voice.
And to make an end is to make a beginning.
