The paths we take

I have significantly mixed emotions about this post. After much thought and consideration I have decided that this will be my last year at the school I have taught at for the last 7+ years. These people are like my family and we have shared so many memories together. 

In the end I needed to do what was best for myself and my family. The thought of not being a kindergarten teacher anymore bring tears to my eyes. Where else can I wear my ruby red shoes and tiara and no one think (or say out loud) how strange I am? Where else will sweet little students write me notes like this:

                                              

I will miss the Little School with the Big Heart with all my heart, but my path is taking me to a different place.

The place that my path is taking me is to become a Resource Room Teacher in in a small K-5 school. I have always loved working with students with special needs and I love teaching all students so I am hoping that this might be the perfect path for me. I am nervous, excited, and looking forward to a new challenge. 

I will continue to write this blog, but the name Kindergarten is Dazzling will need to be changed. So if there is anyone out there with a more creative idea than simple Mrs.Gower's Blog I would love to hear any names you can come up with.
