2 Down

Today was thelast day for 2 of my preschool classes; the other two will end tomorrow- and they will have actual graduation ceremonies, complete with entrance to Pomp and Circumstance. I've been so emotionally tumultuous since I did my traditional last Jesus Time of the year. I always begin by reminding each student that they were made uniquely and deliberately by their Creator, and then I tell them individually what I love about them and what makes them special. This cements for me the idea that the year really is coming to an end. I love to think back on all of the things that they have learned and the ways that they have grown up, but it also shows me where I could have done better. I love my kids, but doubling the number of classes we have has been tough on everyone. The moms and dads are so sweet. They have showered us with praise and gifts, and that makes me see that however much I may feel I could do better, what really shows through to everyone is love.
