This is How You Remind Me of Who I Really Am

Today is an odd one, it is.

It started out rocky, with plenty of grumpiness (sorry Charli). I grouched my way through chapel and then got in the car to drive to my practicum. Traffic and lots of red lights weren't helping my mood at all.

Then I walked into the classroom door.

I love kindergarten. I walked in the door for the first time, today, and within minutes I was surrounded by small faces asking me to help them with their centers, read them a certain book, or to "read" something to me. One little girl even gave me a hug before I left, and I haven't even had the chance to learn any of their names. I was only there for 45 minutes. It was enough.

I walked out of there on cloud nine. And, if everything works out, I might spend all of Friday with them. I still need to talk to my dad because he wanted to take me to lunch for my birthday, but hopefully he won't mind putting it off a few days. I can't think of a better way to spend my birthday than wandering around the Field Museum with a group of kindergarteners. I'm even taking my Bible test early (really really really early) on Monday so that I can leave in time to go. So I'm crossing my fingers and hoping it works out. If not, seeing my dad will still be wonderful. But...but... little kids! O.O

So my mood has finally settled on good, and I am quite content with that.
