God Bless the Elementary School Teacher

I have to give a shout out to all those who teach elementary school. You are a special breed. I substituted for a 2nd grade class last week and... wow! What an experience. I've never been so exhausted in my life. I once heard that teaching 8 year olds is like herding cats and now I know why. Don't get me wrong, the kids are aborable but CRAZY! I am definitely not cut out for the job. So God bless you elementary school teahcers, we need more people like you.

Karly... you said it! I subbed in a 2nd and 3rd grade rrom this past fall. Hearding cats pretty much summed it up... they're always wandering in one direction or another and have no idea why. :) You make me laugh!
