This is why I do what I do.....

The picture above is a picture of my younger cousins. They are a big

part of the reason I became a teacher. It was watching and helping them

grow up that sparked my interest in working with children. Each one of

them are different in their own ways, but they all have the potential to

change our future.I feel they have so much to offer and it is our job to

help them achieve their dreams and goals. :-)

Ellen, I saw that you also uploaded this photo... I think it goes better here in a blog post b/c images that I add need to have words in the image itself. Cool to see your answer!
