Please, remember me, happily, by the rosebush laughing.

Please, remember me...

Yeah, so I thought I was done with that other post, but I need to type more. I really am so incredibly sad about the day care. What hurts I think more than anything is that these kids aren't going to remember me. Or if they do, they'll just remember me as one of the workers at the day care. And even worse than that? I'm not going to remember them. That sounds so harsh, but it's true... I can roll off forty names right now, but in a month or two, when I don't see them on a regular basis, their names will slowly fade. I've probably already forgotten at least forty children that I subbed for. And that's so sad... these kids run up and hug me when they see me. I've rocked or patted almost all of them to sleep. I love them very deeply. I hope that my presence has been worth something in their lives.
