This One’s For The Teachers

Hey there, friends! As we gear up for a new school year, I just want to take a moment to express some gratitude for the incredible teachers out there. Thank you for all the times you think about my kid while grading papers or planning lessons. You teach so much more than just the basics, and that truly matters.

Thank you for being there to listen to my kid’s stories, no matter how small they may seem. It means the world to them, especially when you celebrate those little moments like losing a tooth. I can only imagine how many teeth you’ve seen, yet you still make my child feel special about theirs.

Your support during tough times is invaluable, and while I can’t even begin to list everything you do, I know it goes far beyond the classroom. Your efforts don’t go unnoticed, even when the pay doesn’t reflect your worth. You navigate difficult parents and tight budgets, often using your own money for supplies or working late without compensation.

Your dedication shines through in my child’s excitement as they dive into the next book in a series or in the proud scribbles of a preschooler writing their name for the first time. You’re not just teachers; you’re caregivers, mentors, and a big part of our lives.

On that first day of school, I’m not just sending a student to you; I’m entrusting you with my baby. Even as I let go of my 7-year-old’s hand to board the bus, it feels like I’m placing a newborn in your arms. Thank you for being there with open arms.

In summary, let’s celebrate the teachers who shape our children’s lives every day. Your work matters more than you know!
