I love my job. All of the quoted ones really have been said. Some, you are not quite sure how to respond and others you just smile and laugh. I never thought that being a teacher would be the hardest but the best thing I have ever done. It is so rewarding and in the end, when you see them on Graduation day, accepting that diploma, you know that you had some sort of influence in the life of a young person!

I love your positive attitude. I am glad that my students say things like yours. Just yesterday, one of my students pulled a hair clips off of my pants pocket and then proceeded to tell me that she wanted to cuteify me! The things they say!
haha I've heard some of the same stuff!! All my student teaching kids asked me if I drove a tractor to school and all sorts of questions about potatoes hahaha!
How funny..I bet you are making a difference! oh and by the way, in May, when I get my diploma, all my professors will be glad that they've finally made a difference in my life! :) JK.
