When I was attending Marquette Elementary School, every Friday as we walked out the doors to freedom Mr. Cliff would always be standing there greeting kids and yelling, "It's Friday!" I still remember the tone he used and his great big smile. I always assumed he was happy for us students...we were free for the weekend!
Now I realize, he was shouting for joy that his weekend had arrived. He could go home, relax, spend time with family and friends, and enjoy the time away from recess duty, bell ringing, and the smell of cafeteria food.
Not to say that I'm not learning to enjoy my job and my kiddos, but thank God for the weekends, for students and teachers alike.
