You Know That You Are a Teacher When.... The Inspired Apple Linky

    You Know You're a Teacher When...

You get excited to see freshly laminated materials for your class.

The last book you read (and enjoyed and thought of a million and one uses for) was a children's book.

You can find a use for most anything and the kids love it!

You can write lessons, grade papers, fill out forms and make copies all while eating your lunch.

You spend more money on school stuff than personal things (and don't regret it one bit!)

You make sure to add extra snacks to your grocery list.

You get excited to see sharpened pencils with earsers still on them!

You are a celebrity whenever you go shopping..."Hey mom! Look! It's (fill in your name here)!"

You find yourself saying, "The kids would love this" when on vacation, at the store, on the computer...

and last, but not least,

You know you are a teacher when everyday, whether it is good or bad, you are thankful to be so lucky as to touch the heart and mind of a child.

Teaching is an amazing profession and I am so proud to share that honor with so many wonderful people!

Thanks Abby for letting us share!

My family calls it laminate and a movie night instead of dinner and a movie! It's when I get so excited about lamiated stuff and need it cut out!
Love your list!

Too funny! My mom is great about helping me out with laminate...she has become a pro! I swear it's the first thing that comes to my mind when I see something for the classroom and I must bring home about 20,000 feet of it at the beginning of the year ;)
