Is it all worth it?

As in any job, there are days when it is difficult, when nothing goes right and you get to wondering, "Is it all worth it?"

Lucky for me, after an especially difficult day when I had worked for 13 hours and dealt with teenage girl drama, I had my answer. As I was saying good night, I was amazed by how they had all transformed. They were no longer angry at me for telling them what to do, they were no longer upset about boyfriends or friends, itstead, they were sweet and grateful to be loved. And as I went around to their beds and heard "Goodnight mommy," "I love you," "See you tommorrow," I knew that nothing could be so difficult to make this not worth it.

Peace,
