A Teacher' s Appreciation

To those who may not be aware, this week is Teacher Appreciation week. I am certainly not posting this to pat myself on the back. Instead, I thought my blog was a perfect way to send a public thank you to all the teachers and professors I have had during my many years of schooling. More and more I appreciate the hours they spent preparing, grading, planning, and lecturing. So many of my teachers have influenced me in different ways; however, the one thing I'm most grateful for is how these teachers have instilled in me a love for learning and particularly a love for my field of learning. And of course, with so many good models, I believe these special teachers have greatly influenced my decision to be a teacher.

So God bless each of you who has been such a catalyst in my life.

And to all of my friends who have also chosen this wonderful profession. Keep up the good work. The rewards are far greater than we may ever know.
