Appreciating Teachers

“Elementary Teachers, I wish you the grace of Jesus and the patience of Job on rainy days. There is not enough Jenga on earth to substitute for outside recess. May God shine upon you. With actual sun. So these children may return after recess smelling like gym socks.” ~Jen Hatmaker

Today is teacher appreciation day.  I love you all.  My kids adore you.  I’d give you a hug if I was a hugger but I’m not.  So instead raise your hand in the air.  Go on–do it.  And now–Bam!  I just gave you a huge high five!  Thank you for all of your hard work.

And now, because Jen Hatmaker has a way of stealing the words right out of my mouth and then speaking them out loud better than I ever could, please read this.  She speaks truth.
