You Are A Gift

Growing up I always heard the phrase, "children are a gift from God." I always understood what it mean but as I am growing up and my friends are getting married and having babies, I am beginning to actually FEEL it now. Trust me, I do not have baby fever!  That being said, today one of my students looked at dead in the eye and said, "Miss Scotti Baker, you are a gift!" I was floored. I have to admit, it got me kind of teary eyed..I was gift..to someone, other than my family? No matter how he meant it, it was just another sign I am in the right profession.
