Mr. Steve Martin

So sad to hear that Buck Shot has passed away. Mr. Barge was a huge part of my Calgarian upbringing!

An emotional day.

Saying goodbye to some great kids that are off to high school, saying farewell to my own grade 7 kiddos. So many kids took the time to tell me about the difference that I have made in their lives. So many cards and emails.

And also, thinking about how more of my career is behind me than in front of me. So strange to think that I may only have two or three homeroom classes left before I retire. Teaching is not a job. It is a calling and days like today fill my bucket so full that I know that I am doing exactly what I am meant to be doing.
