"The challenge of history is to recover the past
and introduce it to the present."
- David Thelen
{San Jose Mission, San Antonio, TX)
I hated history growing up.
Having the right teacher can make all the difference.
My teacher today? . . . my daughter.
She is a history major, a future teacher.
Her students will LOVE history, because of her passion and love of it.
Today, in a few minutes I leave to go pick my daughter up from college, in the pouring rain.
POURING rain, 100% chance with thunderstorms.
And I'm so hoping between now and sometime before we leave tomorrow that the sky clears, because
I want to visit a mission (again) before we come back.
I LoVe the missions in San Antonio,
so much history, so much culture,
still something to learn each time I go,
always.
This is teacher appreciation week, and I want to thank teachers all over the world for their love and dedication to teaching or having taught our children.
And this includes all the moms who sacrifice so much to home school their children, including some of my very special blogging friends!
Let me just apologize ahead of time for not being able to visit you back this time, the next few days will be crazy, and waterlogued! ;)
Cheers,
Love, Kim
