Take me to the water, take me to the sea, take me to the river so that my spirit can be free.

Today was the big Junior High Honor Choir concert.  I got a chance to spend some time with a former music teacher of mine, see my students shine in the concert, catch up with other music teachers I never get a chance to see, and get excited for the next two concert weeks for me!  I am so proud of my kids and all the hard work they put into learning the music.  This is why I love being a teacher and need to remember this when I have a hard day :)

Top 5 for the day:
1. Hearing the excitement of students who are about to perform.
2. A lot of "Thank you" compliments from my parents :)
3. Lunch with some pretty awesome colleagues at Chili's :)
4. Seeing my students perform in a choir twice the size of our normal choir :)
5. Driving with the top down in a convertible :)
