See
these ladies right here? They are some of the bestest friends that a girl could ask for. They are not only my coworkers, but my family. There's nothing I wouldn't do for these chicas. We had a work get together the other night and it was nothing short of fun!
But whatever fun is, we go beyond that. We know each other inside and out and have so many jokes that can make me crack up even when I am at home. There is never a dull moment when we are together.
I have been teaching with these girls for years. For some, it's been 11 years! That's a long time. We have started teaching careers together, gone through masters classes together, celebrating each other's weddings, the joys of pregnancy, and the ups and downs of parenting. Needless to say, there is so much more and our lunch conversations are never dull.
You see with these girls, it's easy to be yourself. They know the minute I am sad and I know I can count on them to pick me up. They even know how to build me up buttercup!
And of course it's great when you feel comfortable rapping "Baby got back" in front of total strangers.
You ain't gone none until you've got these friends hon!
Right here, this is my favorite picture. This is my current team. This will always be my favorite team. My most favorite people to work with. Some of them are moving to different grade levels and moving to different hallways. I won't lie. I am incredibly sad and depressesd. It may seem silly but these girls are what makes my job fun. I get up and go to work so I can see them everyday. They give just the right balance to make all those negatives about work seem better. I love these ladies with all my heart.
If you know me, I don't like change. Although the thought of working with all these hot teachers may help. (We sang that song).
I can't imagine not working with these girls. We are a strong, solid team that no matter what, I know will never change. We will continue to be friends no matter what life throws at us.
I know this is a pretty sappy post since I am posting all these pictures of us having a little too much fun but it's seems appropriate. The school year ends a few days and I will say that I will miss seeing them everyday. I know we will get together though.
And this crazy lady right here? She doesn't even know how much she's been my rock all these years. We have had many laughs, many tears, and many, many good times together!
Haven't you heard?.........
I will always love the girls in third.
