I knew it was bound to happen eventually. I mean, really ~ how long did I truly expect this streak to last? Roads and good intentions... you know the saying, right? I tried - really I did. Unfortunately, this usually happens at least twice a year.
I made a mistake.
Ok...ok ... if you know me at all, you can hear my voice and the silliness dripping from this! Mistakes?? Oh my word ~ by the HOUR!!
I admit it. I told my students something in error. Blame it on lack of sleep, too much to do, looking forward to Friday... pick your poison. The fact remains that I made a boo-boo! I'd been doing so well, too ...... insert starry-eyed gaze here.
They took it well, especially since I offered to help them fix my mistake. Fortunately, it was comma placement and not life-altering.
Ah.... alas. I shall not win teacher/mother of the year.
I knew at the beginning of this venture that I would learn more than they did. I guess the proof is in the pudding, huh?
Each day is a new opportunity .... What I do with it is up to the choices I make... and the blessings God gives me.
I cannot change the world, but I CAN change me...
