I Love These Kids!

I had a revelation today. Today I realized that I was meant to be with these kids. I am truly glad that I get to spend the time that I do with them. I do not know why it happened, but while my class was doing their warm-up it occur ed to me that there was no doubt that I became attached to them. I talked to many of the kids today and found out how each one of them has their own style, personality, and mind set. They have begun to trust and listen to me. I think that they are finally realizing that I am there for them, not because I have to be, or just to say that I was doing something noble, but because I care and believe in them. Even my most difficult student, is glad to have me {I am pretty sure :)}. I am not just a TA, but a friend, a disciplinarian, and a mentor. There is no place that I would rather be this summer. I am so glad that I am a TA of today for the leaders of tomorrow.
