Oh my goodness, I know I should be in bed, but I was logging off my computer and saw this quote on my quote of the day and knew I had to jot down some quick thoughts about it!
If thou hast never been a fool, be sure thou wilt never be a wise man.
William Makepeace Thackeray (1811-1863)
I think about all the mistakes I have made in my life and know they have helped me grow into the woman I am today. The foolishness of our youth helps us grow and mature. I want to help my students see that this is a natural part of growing up and that it doesn’t mean they are failures!
I’m tired right now, but I sense a scrapbook page coming out of this quote. Perhaps that should be my first challenge for next week. Of course, I need to get my swap cards completed when my new products arrive, so maybe this should be my second challenge!
Happy Easter everyone!
Amy
