Dealicious Mom

As many of you know, I am a high school special education teacher in the inner city. So as you can imagine there are good (GREAT!) days and then there are not so great days! This week and most of last has seemed to be a series of not so great days…

This is why I am going to bed early tonight and snuggling up with Chicken Soup for the Soul: Teacher Tales: 101 Inspirational Stories from Great Teachers and Appreciative Students. I just know this book will help me turn my spirits around.

After teaching only 7 years I have numerous stories worthy of a book like this. Teaching is a truly rewarding (yet exhausting) profession, I love to read this book when I need a little pick me up or a smile. So it is off to bed for me…

On quick note – This would make a great “end of the year” gift or Thank  You gift for a teacher. Just a thought!
