Sometimes in life there are people who give a little extra in their jobs...it's those "extras" that make an ordinary day extraordinary. A couple years ago at camp, Rover read us a story about people who go the extra mile and strive make memories and leave fingerprints on other people's lives. She challenged us to "leave fingerprints" on our camper's lives. These fingerprints are what shows our love, our passions, our care about the details to the world around us. When it comes down to it, the small things are the ones that are special. I don't want to waste my life waiting for big things to happen, I want to be enamored with the small things, the insignificant things, the silly things. I can't help but thinking that the only way to find contentment is to be content with the everyday things. I hope that I can make memories for my students. Even on rushed and running late day, like today, I want to give a little extra that will make second grade something special. I hope that I can find the energy to connect with students on a personal level and maintain those connections by doing small, extraordinary things.
This is a coffee from the Roasterie in KC. Such skill.
This is a sandwich from Krakatoa (25th and Broadway). I always get the Traitor's Head sandwich. It is awesome....roast beef, tomatoes, lettuce, onions, and horseradish cream cheese! Today I laughed out loud when I saw the picture that was drawn on it. Thanks sandwich dude for making a memory for me. The littlest things make the biggest difference!
