Training Wheels

I seem to always find myself wanting to be a step ahead of where I'm at currently.

My mentor teacher has reminded me a couple of times now in the last two weeks I'm a brand new teacher and shouldn't and won't be doing the things a veteran teacher of 25 years would be doing.

But I just want to be better! And I know I CAN be.

I'm trying really hard to live in the moment and enjoy this time of learning how to teach. I'm just looking at the end of December and can't wait to get there when college is FINALLY finished. It's SO close! I'll be a "REAL" teacher.
But for now, I've got my training wheels on. And that's okay. There is NOTHING wrong with training wheels. I'll probably tell my kids the same thing some day.
