Tuesday SOL: Truth be told




This is a Tuesday Slice of Life for Two Writing Teachers
Check out their website for many more reflections on teaching.


******

Truth be told,
I cannot write a slice tonight.

Truth be told,
there are so many positive things I want to share from my classroom,
about preschoolers,
about teaching.

Truth be told,
I cannot write a slice tonight.

My son (Bryce, 19) is in the midst of a health crisis,
a severe flare-up of his ulcerative colitis.

I can only share the acrostic I wrote at 4pm today,
after 24 hours in the hospital at his side.



It has been a tough three weeks. I will share more from my classroom once Bryce is on the mend.
