I was met in the hall this morning, subbing for a teacher I barely know, by a young man I had in Freshman English last year. He called out, “Hello Mrs. Worrell!” and waved.
I responded in kind and asked how he was doing and his response blessed my soul and warmed my teacher’s heart.
Good. I miss you and your class a lot Mrs. Worrell.
The sincerity of those words.
As a stay-at-home mom, I miss teaching every day, but more than anything I miss my school babies and all the joy we shared learning together.
