My Truth Monday and November Goodies


Hello!  Happy Monday!  I am linking up with Denise from Sunny Days in Second Grade for a little "My Truth Monday".  Click the button above to read more or to join in on the fun!  Today's topic is Becoming a Teacher.  My journey is a simple one.  It's all I ever wanted to do and with the help of a couple very memorable teachers and the support of truly awesome parents, my dream came true.  Here's my story...

So, I have to give a shout-out to all the other teachers out there!  You never know how much influence you are having on your students.  I always wanted to be the happy, fun teacher that these two teachers were for me.  I wanted to be JUST LIKE THEM!  I can only hope that I am half the teacher that these ladies were for me.  The neat twist to this story is that I still live in the same town, so I see these two ladies on a regular basis.  I still love them as much as I did in 2nd/3rd grade.  Get this: one of these ladies even substituted in my classroom last year - wow!  Isn't that the coolest?! :)

Now head on over to Sunny Days in Second Grade and link up for more fun stories about becoming a teacher!

  2. I am loving reading these stories about how teachers inspired us to be teachers. Heartwarming- especially when they come back to visit you and tell you that is why they chose the profession. I've had that happen a few times and it's a precious moment! Thanks for sharing!
