As a teacher, she never stops trying to make connections link for her students. Every conversation or free moment is an opportunity to turn on that lightbulb. That is what teaching means to her.
As a student, she is always attempting to really make those connections on her own, while still listening intently to her mentors throughout the process. What can they teach her? What connections hasn't she yet made?
As a mother, she just wants to live in that very second, wanting it never to end or be forgotten. Every minute her children are making those connections and showing her even more, so that they become the teacher in so may ways.
Everything comes full circle and she hopes you enjoy some of what she has learned along the way!
