When You’re Tired…

Dear Teacher, 

When you’re tired, it’s okay to sit down and take a breath.

When your energy has hit an all time low, you are allowed to reflect on the nourishment your body, mind, and soul needs.

Teacher, you are a human being too. 

You cannot do it all. And it’s okay.

Your students will feel loved, even if the end-of-the-year celebrations don’t turn out like you imagined they would.

Your students will know you care, even if you show up to school a little tired and frazzled.

Because even when you’re tired, you still choose to love and care and fight for your students. 

And you deserve to be loved, cared for, and fought for.

You are worthy. 

You are enough.

I am proud of you.
