do you know why i miss them so?

i miss them alot.

have i told you just how much i miss them?

their smiles. their laughs.

their cute little ways of pretending to do work.

the way they greet me.

the annoying yet endearing way of teasing me.

i miss them alot.

because they've left alot of footprints on my heart.

the sharpies for my birthday.

making gigantic cards to thank me.

baking a brownie cake for me.

how a pat on the shoulder would come when I'm down.

getting a glass of water when I have my migraine attacks.

helping me to do the dreaded filing.

leaving an apple on my table for me.

i miss them so much.

they really mean so much to me.

because at times, just looking at them achieve in life makes me stronger.

seeing them overcome obstacles reminds me to stay focused for their sake.

knowing that they are more than just kids tells me I still have job to do.

remembering how they were once blur-case kids who are now responsible teens inspires me.

believing that they can do it tells me that that is all that matters sometimes.

my dear kiddies,

i'm so proud of all of you. you are doing so great. i miss you very much. nowadays, eventhough i'm no longer part of your life directly, you still greet me online or when i'm at school picking up students for tuition.

i miss being able to go for chapel together. i miss showing videos and sharing during devotion. i miss bargaining for rounds for P.E. i miss directing the drama and dances. i miss leading worship during chapel. i miss lining up for lunch and complaining about the food. i miss lecturing Room 1 about not wasting the hand soap. i miss SO MANY THINGS!!!

but most of all.

I just miss each and every one of you.

I will forever miss you. I am moving on, but the footprints that you have left in my heart remain.

i love you all.
