A year ago, I had retired after sixteen years of teaching. Thinking that I wanted to try being a stay at home mom. I did not regret this decision in the least. My children are the highlight of my life.
That being said, I really missed being a teacher. I always was so proud of my chosen path in life and quickly learned that I was not quite ready to retire. I missed it so much. I struggled with my identity quite a bit.
I have returned to the classroom this year and my children and I have begun this new adventure together. Two of my three boys are attending the school with me.
Welcome to my new journey.
