when the student who has struggled the most
who you have worked with for hours
and explained things so many times
who has caused so much stress
who you wonder if you can really help
who wants to succeed, but just can't seem to get there
when the moment comes when he GETS it
and his face shines
he is shocked
and excited (and so are you!)
and you realize that watching that is the best thing in the world
and you remember why you became a teacher
and everything is right in the world
today was one of those days
and I love it
