All Star Treatment Teaser

I'm nowhere near ready to write a real post on it, and the game itself hasn't happened yet...but I am seriously having the time of my life and I had to give you a taste of the excitement. I feel so appreciated as a professional. This trip is beyond words!

Yes, that's us with Cal Ripken, Jr.!

Today the amazing honor culminates as the 30 of us are honored on the field pre-game. So tune into ESPN or MLB network for the All Star pre-game show to catch a glimpse. I'll be the one crying and trying not to fidget!

I can't wait to fill you all in on everything that has happened. Until then, THANK YOU if you helped me get here by voting!

    I met Cal Ripken Jr. at a spring game once when I was little :)

    1. Yeah, it's definitely a little weird to get this kind of treatment. Lord knows we teachers aren't used to it!

    1. Seriously. I kept wondering why it's a big deal that teachers rarely receive accolades - plenty of occupations don't - and then realized it's because we're so used to receiving the opposite: disrespect and abuse. I was totally emotional and thinking of ALL my blogging-teacher friends the whole time!
