i am now officially an adult...

Wow. That is all I have to say right now.  I started teaching third grade yesterday and I have made it through two whole days of teaching.  After yesterday, I wasn't so sure of the career I had chosen, but I have flip-flopped since.  Today went much better.  One way I know this is because my throat doesn't hurt as much :)  I feel like I can now say that I am officially an adult because I have a real job (by that I mean the one I went to college for).  I just hope more days can be like today than they will be like yesterday.  I was so grateful to have Darrin the last week.  He knows how scared I was and helped me through all my first day jitters.

OH my goodness I felt the same way about my first day of school! But the second day reassured me that I wasn't insane for going into teaching :) Glad to hear that you feel more comfortable with teaching! I'm sure you are AMAZING!
