My Other Students

Sometimes I'm so caught up in my work teaching that I forget who my real students are.

Who are the children I teach with every word, act, and omission?  Who hears me in the car and from the other side of the bathroom door?

Yep.  My kids.  So today I took the three of them out to the Forsyth Farmers' Market, then out to lunch, and then the SCAD Mini-Comics Expo.  We ran some errands, and then went to mass.  They learned a lot, and I remembered that DAD is more important than my BA or MAT or even my cherished TOTY.



Key: BA - undergrad degree; MAT - "Master of the Arts in Teaching," my graduate degree; TOTY - Teacher of the Year, which I earned this year, big fancy pants that I am.
