The Blog-tember Challenge: When I Grow Up...

Todays prompt: "When I grow up I want to be..." Feel free to answer as your 5-year-old self or as of now.

I love this prompt for the only reason that what I wanted to be when I was 5 is what I am going to be. I have literally wanted to be a teacher for my entire life (minus a few days here and there) and I am actually living out my dream. Growing up it was just because I was always the one who loved kids, and I was always around people who were younger than me. I was always so organized and loved to instruct others (not necessarily in a bossy way) on how to do things. In elementary school I had some pretty amazing teachers, and have truly stuck with me since. Within the past two years I have been able to see that God has also led me to teaching. It is exactly where I am meant to be and I couldn't be more blessed or happy. Teaching is more to me than just a job, and many people will mention the money aspect of it... I truly do not care about how much I am paid, as long as I love my job that is all that matters!

What did you want to be when you were little? I love hearing what kids answers are to this question, it really gets their mind flowing!
