Thank you! Teaching is amazing but trying. Especially since it's one of those jobs that you have to be "on" at all times for - It's just exhausting to be "on" for 8 hours, then come home to a crazed 3 year old, get him to bed, and then sit and work for another 2+ hours every night and more on weekends. I always joke that it's 9 months of pure stress, then 3 months of pretending not to work/think about school, (even though we work quite a bit in the summer too) and then back to it - a wicked cycle. But it's worth it when we get the occasional notes, thank yous, and hugs from students.
