And not only that, but it being my first job and all--that reality very much translates into me feeling comfortable in my own skin--and that, my friends, cannot be bought.
I think that I've had this idea in my head, for awhile, of who I want to be---and I'm just not that person--not that I couldn't be, but in some ways I don't think I want to be anymore.
The other day I was pressuring Cleveland to talk to a higher up about someone on staff actin' a fool....my favorite line with him lately is that he's a big softy. And he made a few comments about how he feels like he's a softy around me because I'm always pressuring him to toughen up on people. And how I keep him on his toes. It was quite humorous. Today, I was working with a 6 year old on expressing anger appropriately--so we were making a list of things that help him to calm down---I suggested carrying a silly picture in his pocket and asked him if he had one. The boy said "There's one!" And pointed to my ID badge! DANG 6 YEAR OLD FACE BURN! It was amazing, I gave him a high five. I positively reinforced a face burn!! Those are my ramblings, now I must go home.

Dang...that's awesome! I don't think I've ever been burned by a six year old...but I think I have been by a 3 year old. ;)
