Loving teaching.

After an exhausting day at school today, I was carrying my tired self and many bags of homework to the parking lot when I spotted a few of my students. At first, I figured that it would be "uncool" for their teacher to say hi...then I figured, hell with it, and called out a hello.

"Hey, Ms. A!"
Some fussing in the group.
"Hey, don't I have your class tomorrow?"
"Yeah, you do!"
"See! Told you I did! Are you gonna be there? If you're not there I'm not going!"

Aww. They do like me. And I like them back--there's definitely a sense of "those are my kids!" developing along with the overwhelming sleepiness. Teachers have such early bedtimes.
