There's a big difference between wanting to study and learn and being forced to.<BR/><BR/>I've been lucky to have had such amazing students :)<BR/><BR/><B>Karen</B>:<BR/>It <I>is</I> a very rewarding job :) I feel it most when I see the progress my students are making. You know that moment when that light bulb above the head goes on and they make the connection between what you've taught them and actually using it?? Now, <I>that</I> is priceless.<BR/><BR/>Oh, wow! Little G is so lucky! She must have had a blast with her mama! That girl is just toooooooo cute!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09251507898309184477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-79625718987119454392008-05-23T21:59:00.000-04:002008-05-23T21:59:00.000-04:00Teaching is such a wonderful, giving profession. ...Teaching is such a wonderful, giving profession. I think you have to be a special type of person to do that. And you obviously are, given your track record and the great relationships you've maintained over the years.<BR/><BR/>Just took the Little G to Wonderland on her own on Tuesday and she had two whole hours of Kidsville, almost to herself!Karen MEGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10834425321020756655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-13710385242801319012008-05-23T14:11:00.000-04:002008-05-23T14:11:00.000-04:00You are truly amazing :) What an amazing experien...You are truly amazing :) What an amazing experience this must have been for you teaching in all of these places.

I was laughing when I realized you were in EVERY single one of those photos!! I didn't realize that we spent that much time together! LOL! <BR/><BR/>We had lots of good times :) You're right...some bad, but I guess that's life. That was around the time of "The Ex" and all that crazy stuff. The summer of 2001 was a crazy one.<BR/><BR/>I remember you puking after the Drop Zone! LOL! That was the last time I went to an amusement park too! I did go to the Providence Bay Fair that they have on the Island and I got really woozy after being on one of those dinky rides! *sigh*Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09251507898309184477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-69728702929421234502008-05-22T23:49:00.000-04:002008-05-22T23:49:00.000-04:00Uncivil:Thank goodness for e-mail, MSN, Skype, and...<B>Uncivil</B>:<BR/>Thank goodness for e-mail, MSN, Skype, and Facebook! LOL! I've been able to keep in touch with students, colleagues and old friends through via the internet. <BR/><BR/><B>Bert</B>:<BR/>I know!!! I was going to tell you guys that Wonderland, Casa Loma, the CN Tower, Kensington Market (and a bunch of other places in the e-mail I sent Canine) would be great places to take TC. Niagara Falls would be great too.<BR/><BR/>There's always next year :) I was thinking, if you guys wanted and are able to come next year, I can even take you guys to Ottawa and Montreal. I've got family in Toronto and Montreal and a good friend and her family in Ottawa. They all said we can stay with them if we wanted to.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09251507898309184477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-23680453501565772112008-05-22T23:26:00.000-04:002008-05-22T23:26:00.000-04:00wow do those photos ever bring back memories!!

I read about it in all the travel stuff we accumulated so far. Might have been a fun day-trip for TC. Too bad we can't this year.
