I met up with some of my teaching friends from my previous school district for some shopping and lunch. I love these ladies and without a couple of them I probably wouldn't have survived my first year of teaching.
We had the best time laughing and catching up. It seems as if everything around us changes through time, but when we get together we pick up as if we just talked yesterday. I love that!
This is Mary Sue and me.
Mary Sue is one of the absolute sweetest people I've ever met! She was my mentor my first year of teaching and I'm pretty sure I'd be in a different profession if it weren't for her. Anytime I had a bad day (which was pretty much everyday that first year!) or felt like I couldn't make it another day, she was there to encourage me and cheer me on! I'm so thankful for her support and guidance as I now can't imagine myself doing anything other than teaching---just had a lot to learn at the tender age of 22! Ha! What a blessing she was to me.
My time with these ladies was far too short, but we will be looking forward to our next visit soon!
