Everyone should have one.I started this school year thinking last year was my hardest yet. I had a moment at outdoor yoga this summer where I was reminded to stay focused despite the challenges. However, that was while meditating and before meeting my student(s) who have serious needs. My heart wants to fix it all, but I can’t.

Needless to say, I am happy the first quarter is over and one of my students is now getting the services he needs. I finished twenty-two parent conferences last week. When I walked in on Wednesday and found this gift and a kind card from one of my mentors, I was taken back to that summer day where I clearly heard my calling. I am in the right job and I know I have gifts to offer. Sometimes I just need someone else to remind me.

Thank you.
