This holiday season has been wonderful, and a needed time of rest. As much as I love my job and adore the students I work with each day, I appreciate the slower pace these breaks provide. I find myself in a rhythm of rest that calms and centers me. The fall was filled with adjusting to a new job, completing a master’s program, trying to figure out how to run a booster club successfully, driving my daughter to speech tournaments, and watching her take the stage for theater. It was easily the busiest fall we have experienced to date. And it was fun, so very fun, but as I sat down for what felt like the first time in months as we began our Christmas break, I realized how tired I am. Overwhelmingly grateful? Absolutely. Beyond thrilled to be where I am? One hundred percent. But also, in need of rest’s rhythm.
