Our daughter just graduated in December and is teaching fourth grade in an urban school. She is an Alice in Wonderland fan. Many days are difficult but God always seems to send an encouraging moment each day. So I made this journal for her to record those moments and on those days when she starts to "wonder" why she is doing what she does she can be reminded why this is her chosen profession.
Thanks for Taking a Look!

What a delightful gift for your daugher! I do hope that she records those daily moments, however insignificant they seem. When times get tough the remembrances of our purpose can be a new revelation. God bless.

Great journal and a great reason behind making it - hope your DD has many moments to record in there and not too many reasons to need to look back at it!

A wonderful journal and a great story behind it - coming from a family of educators, I have a lot of respect for those who choose to teach. It definitely is a calling.
So glad you played along this week!
