Last week I congratulated six-tear-old Sam
on a neatly done, correct paper, saying,
"You must be proud of yourself!"
He looked me straight in the eye and replied,
"You know pride is a sin."

I envy you and your job. Doh!
Boy that makes me mad when I do that. Doh!
I hate my job, I wish I had chosen teaching as a profession. Doh!
I guess I was thinking of the pay and not the personal rewards you, Denny, and Kim experience every day. Doh!
I better quit while I'm ahead. ;O)
Isn't it how inspiring and witty kids can be - I wish that I was that quick to come up with something so filled with truth, although if I said that I would probably sound like I was being preachy and not cute!
