Sue,
Yes, it's tons of eduction and very low pay. My kids got reduced price lunches at school until I started working part-time.

It feels like a real kick in the stomach. There is something terribly, terribly wrong with the system.

But my husband still loves teaching.

I cannot make the universe obey me. I cannot make other people conform to my own whims and fancies. I cannot make even my own body obey me.

Thomas Merton



Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul - and sings the tunes without the words - and never stops at all.

Emily Dickinson
