WOW what a TEACHER!

I knew at the age of two that my daughter Katherine had a "gift" for seeing what needed to be done and doing it...not just doing it but doing it to the best of her ability! I didn't know how this would manifest itself, until her high school years, when she made the decision to become a kindergarten teacher...just like her mom! My heart just leaps for joy when I have the opportunity to visit her classroom (it's several hours away so it doesn't happen as often as I would like for it too) and observe first hand the excellent teacher that she has become. Not only does her mom know this but her coworkers honored her with "Teacher of the Year" for 2010 and her parents nominated her for "Walmart Teacher of the Year" in 2009 and she won. Last year she finished her masters in elementary education and her National Boards all in the same year solidifying my impresions of her when she was two years old. All of this lets me see that she is using her God given talents and I have to admit...in only 5 years, she is a better teacher than her mom after 32 years of teacher. AND that my friends is a BLESSING indeed!

Wow - a post from you - what a blessing!

She sounds like a wonderful teacher. Kindergarten is such a great year - Livi had such a great brand new teacher last year and it has made such a huge impact on her.
