Become Like A Child

Ever since I can remember I have loved playing with children. Its something I'm good at. Thats the reason why I absolutely love my job! Tumblebus is stressfull and hard but days like today makes it all go away! We had this little boy with asthma on today. Not that big of a deal seeing as we live in Utah and its pretty common, but you could tell he was sheltered because of it! This week is circus themed and at the first station we are teaching them how to flip on the rings! Fun, but not when your the teacher and you get hitt in the face constantly. haha! Well anyways he was terrified to flip so I just asked him if he wanted to swing on them, and he was still so scared. But he tried it! And he absolutely had the time of his life! I love the look they get on their face when they realize that they can do it. I love the fact when they first start to trust me and when they start to trust themselves! I got so many big hugs from little bodies and that makes my heart just feel soo good inside! I can't wait to become a teacher! I used to think of teaching 4th grade, but now I'm thinkin kindergarten! I love that age and the quote that says "everything I ever needed to know about life, I learned in kindergarten". I just want to touch just one childs life. And then I think I would be able to look back on my life with a smile, knowing that I made a big difference for a small child :)
