Thank Heaven for Little Girls

This has been a difficult school year.  I have gone from feeling optimistic in October to feeling discouraged and sad in February.  But the students at Moye always find the most amazing ways to boost my spirits and make everything all better.  Yesterday, while teaching a class in the library, one of our sweet third grade girls came to the library to bring me a very special treat.  I found her gift, a snow globe with a cross on top, beside my computer after I finished teaching but I wasn't sure which wonderful third grade girl had remembered me with the thoughtful surprise.  

Today the students in 3C came to the library to finish the lesson we started yesterday and I learned that the snow globe was the gift of Valeria D.  I can't begin to explain how very meaningful Valeria's beautiful present  was to me.  I have been struggling with some decisions in my life but Valeria helped me see my way more clearly.  There is no where I would rather be than working with the best babies in the world at H.R. Moye Elementary School and I think Valeria was the messenger of that message from God to me.
