At open house last night a parent, and fellow teacher, approached me about her son. Apparently he wasn't feeling well the other day but wanted to come to school so he could go to math class. He's really enjoying class and feels like he's understanding math for the first time. Today that same student told me he wants to be a math teacher when he grows up. I don't think there is any higher compliment. It is definitely a highlight of my week.
On another note, my athletes had their first home meet tonight. I was thrilled about the parent turnout we had, and most of my kids ran good times for themselves. However, we didn't fare too well against our opponent. The program is building, and they're improving. That's all I can ask for.
Tonight I realized another perk of living alone. I get to pick out my own ice cream flavor. :) I just picked up Edy's loaded chocolate fudge brownie. If nothing else, it most definitely fits the bill for a chocolate fix.
