End of an Era


I really have had such an amazing experience with student teaching. My first seven weeks are over and it doesn't seem fair. As soon as I get a chance to know these kids, I have to leave them. But I am so excited for my next seven weeks in 3rd grade! It will be so much fun. I won't miss the "Miss Buckwee... I didn't make it to da potty" or the "But, I don't wanna" but I will miss "Miss Buckwee, you didn't hug me yet today" and all the laughs I got from them everyday. Wow, it goes by very fast. What am I complaining about? I get to do this every year! Just when I start to tell myself I can't do it anymore, one of the kids comes up to me with a nose that needs a tissue and gives me a gigantic hug... one of those hugs that make you wonder where someone that small got that much strength.
