I am a retired elementary school teacher having taught for 30 years in a variety of schools, but always in the 3-4-5th grades. I loved it! Even the ""difficult""; child was loved, although sometimes it was a bit more of a challenge. I was surprised to find that I also love retirement. I was able to become even more involved with my church. God is my center. My reason for being He's made of my life A part of His whole.
