On My Heart

There is a little girl in Alex's class who I just want to bring home.  Her shirts are normally on backward, her hair doesn't look like it has been brushed, her clothes are often to big.  I just want to bring her home with me and love on her.  I told her this week that I was proud of her and it was like she grew a little, she stood a little straighter.  It was almost like she had never heard this words directed to her.  Now, I don't know what is going on at home, but it sounds like she gets lost in the shuffle.  Every time I'm in there I try to tell her at least one positive thing.  I try to help her out with her work.  But, I can only do so much.

This is why I can't teach anymore.  I would want to bring them home and love on them.
