Love and Sesame

I’ve been looking forward to the end of the semester for a couple of months now because there are a lot of things I want to try different next time around.

But today it hit me: In like… one week, I’m going to lose all my kids. Lose them! And then a couple of days later, I’m going to be thrown in with an entirely new batch of strangers.

It’s ridiculous how very much I’ve come to love them in just four months–in spite of all the early mornings, late nights, and sometimes all-nights spent trying to plan lessons.
