it's been a hard week. most days i've come home with red eyes and feet that scrape through the kitchen. i've never had a group of kids that tax my energy to the breaking point. kids that are so needy in so many ways. part of me wants to slam out of the room, run up to the front office and scream, " i can't do it!"
every single day i feel like i'm not enough.
and then this tuesday i had to make one of the hardest phone calls of my teaching career. of course i can't say anything about the details of that call, but just know that i was shaking as i held the receiver.
my heart hurts for some of these kids. but at the same time i want to close down, to save at least a piece of my energy for the other 5-6 hours of my day.
it's only been 5 weeks. that thought is not one i can contemplate right now.
Praying for you, Nicole...
