Day 8: Tired

Whew! Long day today. A longer one tomorrow. I love teaching, though and it is really no burden. This is a good kind of tired. I learned stuff today... like how to work my iPad (Lindsey W showed me how to do snapshots of screens on my iPad. I love teenagers. They know so much about gadgets and technology!). I heard a teacher in chapel today stand up and tell the students "You need to listen to us grownups sometimes... we actually know stuff!" (amen, Mrs Bradshaw - preach it!).  My 7th grade class assigned animals to each of their teachers. Apparently I am Garfield the cat.... go figure.

I went to Bluegrass rehearsal after school today, and was reminded how much I love my friends and how much I love playing music with them.

But now I am home, under my comforter, happy that I got the gift of today. It was a great day. Now I am going to lay me down to sleep, and know the Lord my soul will keep... after all that's His job. I won't finish that childhood prayer, as it is a bit macabre. It's enough to know that I blessed kids and was mightily blessed in turn. I am tired... but happy.
