Today was a day of seeing things from a different perspective. First of all I had been praying that the Lord would give me insight on my aide. I realized that she likes to think outloud. What I thought was that she was mad was just thinking without processing it inside. When I finally realized it I understood many times she was not mad at me but just questioning stuff.
Second I have been needing help sometimes and lately it has come from unlikely sources like the nurse, my former aide and a sub. God knows when I need something and even though I should get it in one place He knows that when they don’t do their job that He will find it for me somewhere else.
Third, today a parent approached me about a child going on a trip. It had been a struggle getting communication with her. As much as I wanted to freak out on her when she approached me on this I kept my cool and apologized. I am learning that saying sorry when something is not even my fault diffuses a lot of things. I even got to share with her when she said she was getting a divorce that I would be praying for her and even hugged her. God is so good to help me speak apples sometimes.
Fourth, my former principal actually apologized me me about something he had not done wrong. It blew my mind so much I could not believe it and wished I could of video or voice created the situation. How crazy is that?
Last I have been really making progress with WBT. I see the growth of my students. They blow my mind so much. Having probably one of the most difficult classes in the district but in my opinion one of the most interesting and creative I have been approached by two teachers saying that they wish they had taken sped ed. That is only God.
