Today was my first day back at work (for those who don't know, I'm an English teacher at school). It was great to see my kids, they grow fast. Masha looks so much taller with her newly grown teeth. Anton's first phrase when he saw me was "Thank God you're here! Darya Aleksandrovna, I could finally retell that text!' I only missed two weeks and they already learned the names of professions and grammatical structure 'Has he/she got...?' Feels like I missed a whole lot, but in fact it's them who grow and mature rapidly.

Being a teacher has its advantages and disadvantages. But the best part is just to watch them change, become beautiful people, gain knowlege day after day and be there for them, everyday in their ups and downs, supporting and understanding their beautiful children's minds.
