I am proud to be an American and will never forget the events of September 11.

Such a tragic day, so many lost loved ones, being a teacher that day was so hard. But it did bring about such a great sense of togetherness in our country for a few years.

We’ve all had them…days when we’re planned out, on top of things, and ready to take on the world, and days when we’re flying into the school parking lot just before the bell rings with dryer sheets hanging out of our clothes, coffee spilling everywhere, and no idea what the heck we’re teaching in ten minutes.
