Today I said goodbye to this classroom. I won’t

Today I said goodbye to this classroom.
I won’t be returning here in September.

During the last week of school more funding was provided which prompted in the creation and expansion of a few system jobs. One was a perfect fit so I threw caution at the wind and applied, still not sure if I was wanting a change.
Yesterday I had an interview and this morning, the last day of school, after much debate and soul searching I accepted a system itinerant position.

I will get to work with teachers and students in my new role and since I love doing both I am excited for this new opportunity.

I will miss my colleagues, they were amazing! I couldn’t have asked for a better team. They kept me organized and read all the memos. They always knew what day it was (something I didn’t always know) and were paperwork experts. These amazing educators will always hold a special place in my heart and they make it hard to leave.
Change is hard!
But change is good. Looking forward to this new chapter in my teaching career and continuing to support each of you through Madly Learning.

It’s moving day!

Except I’m not really moving. I just need to clean out my classroom of all my personal items. (So like everything)

Reports done! Now to the many other things on my to do list.

Honestly this isn’t just the Covid speaking. June is always a tough month for me. There is so much happening I get easily overwhelmed by it all.
But I tell myself this is a season and it will be past soon enough. I dream big and in these dreams I am not always sure if the path to get from point A to point B.
But sometimes it is the small moment that I live for. The peach that my front porch offers me as my kids bike up and down the street enjoying these Covid days of summer.

The one thing this time has given me is more time with my kids. More time to work with teachers. More time to create products for others to help them save their own time so they too can be more present with their family.

While the overwhelm is real. I am at least finding joy in between during these small moments of escape.
