I am tired

Ok so it has been almost a week since I wrote last. I am just tired. I am tired of having no support from my administration. I am tired to working my tail off trying to renew my license only to have a two second signature from my boss. I am tired of my class acting like the world owes them a living. I am tired of having my breaks taken away so I can babysit my class. I am tired of being treated like a criminal. Today I got food poisoning and they would not get me a sub so I had to teach and visit the bathroom. Luckily after completing emptying out my system, I kept on teaching. Luckily, besides dehydration I felt better. 


A few days ago, I met my replacement. It is the not a happy feeling knowing that you can be easily replaced. There is 13 more days and part of me is thrilled... a large part of me because then this will all be over. However, another part of me is upset and not ready to say goodbye to my children. They are pains in my behind but they are my pains. I love them and I feel so fortunate to be there teacher. Yes, they are challenging and my very high patience level gets thinner everyday. I don't like the person I am with them because I see all of my mistakes. However, I love it so much and I have learned so much about myself this year than any other year. I may never know why I felt that I needed to take over this class in the middle of nowhere, where I did not know a soul, this year and at this time. I am so grateful for it though and would not trade it for the world. I felt this way at the last transfer of my mission. This is crunch time. Before I left my mission, I remember not wanting it to end and then it did end super fast. That is how I feel now.


Anyway, we are working on Mother's Day stuff all of this week. They are making Coffee Filter Butterfly magnets for Mother's Day. They are turning out so cute! I wish I could be a fly on the wall when their mother's open their gifts.
