Today

I just read through what everyone has posted so far about today's class, and I can honestly say I agree with all of it. :-) We have grown so close as a group it's hard to remember that we know very little about each others personal lives. I was very touched by Tonya's paper, and by Martha's and everyone else who read today. I cannot express what this class has meant to me. I have regained so much confidence in my writing and I am so excited about going back to my classroom in August and sharing what I have learned. So much of that is because of what I have learned because I knew all of you. I am very grateful for the experience and I am very humbled by what I heard in your papers today. I haven't had a tenth of the hardship that you have overcome and I don't know that I would have had the strength to persevere as you have. I am looking forward to tomorrow's readings.
