It finally happened! I had a child ask me who my third favourite reptile is. It wasn't at school but in line at Aldi. A lovely mum with two very busy little boys were chatting about their upcoming trip to the Reptile Zoo. They were so excited. The youngest grabbed at my leg thinking I was mum. I crouched down and asked them to tell me all all bout it. Their little faces lit up as they could tell I was really interested. 

When people ask me why I am teacher it is really hard to answer because there are so many reasons but these interactions with small humans is the main one. Their joy in God's creation, their joy in the discovery of God's wonderous variety never gets old.

God bless,
