So true- It's the biggest gift you have: it's yourself. I felt that as a high school nurse where I was the minority. They needed what “Miss” encouraged in them. My beliefs. I was building on grandparents and great grandparents foundation of faith. The brief time I had with many of them(and some not so brief), to give of myself as I have them a Tylenol, ice pack or bandage. The silent one in special education, who finally said, Thank you with more than his eyes. To work with children is an amazing gift.

A description that's chilling which only a dedicated teacher/professor/writer could give.
