• When there is no more tears, not more sorrow.

  I wrote a little something to my kids at my work, that I recently quit from. And well, reading it makes me cry, but with happiness, i thought I'd share it here too! :) Enjoy.

  The kids that made a huge impact in my life
  
  It's been a week since I quit my job. I guess you can say, that I have been getting by. But there isn't a day that I don't stop what im doing and think of the kids there, that made a HUGE impact in my life. I mean, kids have these huge hearts, and they share them with you. They brighten your day, no matter what has happened. They just seem to know what to do to make you smile, or just make you happy. They smile at you,or they just sit in your lap without saying anything and that alone, makes you feel so important. They made me feel so important.. like i was a super-women or something. And their smiles always erased any problem I had. So, i guess leaving their was a bit harder, because I miss my kids so much.
  
  There is one girl from work that was my of my favorites that I get to see every day almost, so that's a plus.
  
  But their are others I miss. Kaci, first.. she welcomed me with open arms when I started. I seemed to soften her heart, as she did mine.
  Alex, Oh my goodness, this girl never talked to me.. never said anything, by the time I left that week, she was giving me hugs before she left and smiling and enjoying fun times with me.
  Brooklyn, left two months before I did, but she was the first little girl, that made a huge imprint in my life. Her heart was so big, and she held my heart tightly in her grip.
  Ally and Sophia, future cheerleaders, they were both so pretty and sooo cute! They were also very smart for their ages. They are our tomorrow, and that let alone, excited me.
  There was Isabella, she needed you to love her. She needed to be hugged, she needed it all, she needed that attention just as much as the next kid. She loved being by your side, and having all the attention in the world. It was something she needed, and I so freely gave it to her. I mean, i knew her parents loved her, there was no doubt about it, but Bella needed it, she needed it to strive to do better, she needed the love and a lot of it. She had a huge heart, and she always cried over the littlest thing, you knew just by looking at her that something was wrong, good or bad. I can not wait to see where this girl goes in the future.
  Destin and Connor. They are diffenently the football players of tomorrow, the men that will change our world, they both held a place in my heart, differently from the other, Connor was tough, and a bit closed up some days, he didn't want to talk to you, or even act as if he was your buddy, and Destin, he just wanted to be loved, to be always cared of, he wanted all the attention. There are a few others, that made impacts in my life...but those were the ones that made the biggest ones. I miss them a lot! And i know, when I left I was asked about, it broke my heart, made me cry. Writing this, kind of makes me cry. But I know, if we are ever to see each other again, it will happen. I just can't wait, to see where these kids go, what they do.. and how they will change our world.
  
  
  I guess I wanted to do this little post, to share with you, how much kids can change your life. They might be little, and not understand this big world you live in right now, but they do. They understand it. It affects them. Little things affect them in huge ways. I mean, yes they don't understand it as completely as you do, and you think, just beacuse they are little and young, and they have this innocent heart that they don't get whats going on around them, your wrong. They do. They understand it, and it changes them in the same way it changes you. Yes, it makes a HUGE impact in your life, but when you look at it, they have this huge heart.. and it changes them just as much as it does you. By the way they act, and by the way they think.. sometimes they are quiet about it, some are loud about it. But when things happen, they express it, and you can tell. I could tell their was something wrong with Kaci, after Christmas break this past Christmas. She was off a bit, something was going on with her, because she was struggling. But giving her hugs and loving her, and telling her that I did, changed it, it gave her something else.. something big.. huge even.
  
  Kids are very special. But of course, you know that! I mean, just looking at them melts your heart. There big smile, there laughter.. it fills your heart and you never ever forget it. I still remember the kids from my last center I worked at.. I remember their expressions there laughter, there crying.. there smiles, I remember how much love they had for me, and for the others around them. Kids keep me going in a way, they keep me strong, they share so much love with me, no matter how flawed I am, no matter what im doing wrong or right, they love me no matter what. You can learn alot from them. I know I did! : )

  If you have noticed the titles I have been using.. there from an amazing song by Jeremy Camp: There will be a day. I'd advise all of you to read it! It's really amazing! And the words melt my heart, and soften them and at the same time.. excite me, that there WILL be a day.. when there is no more tears, no more sorrow.. and then, I'll see Jesus face to face!!!! I CANT WAIT!!! I can't wait, for when THERE WILL BE A DAY!!!!!
