so there they are...my 25 second graders!
they are all so different and they each have something unique to offer.
i have learned something from each and every one of them.
tonight they have their performance!
we have been preparing for this night for the past 6 weeks.
if it goes at all like it did yesterday during the dress rehearsal, they will do great!
tomorrow i have to say goodbye to them...
i am not a fan of goodbyes.
coming here to china i had to say my fair share of goodbyes, but i knew that those were all temporary.
saying goodbye for good is something different.
i will most likely never see these kids again and that breaks my heart.
i didn't think i would ever get as attached to my students as i have, which makes it ever harder.
but do you know what?
i know that these kids are in good hands.
they are going to continue being great students.
they are going to continue be amazing people.
they are going to grow up and be successful.
they are going to be just fine.
and for some reason, knowing all of that makes saying goodbye just a little bit easier.
each and every one of these kids will hold a special place in my heart.
they have taught me more than i probably ever taught them and i am so thankful for them!
