"Change" #kinderblog13

This week's prompt for #kinderblog13 is

Change

Oh, I know change.  

It twists me into shapes I didn't think possible.

It reveals images that are brand new.

It makes me sweat, cry, and generally act like a toddler.

Definition: the act, process, or result of making different, 

the frequent and usually sudden passing from one condition to another

Change can happen in a heartbeat.

To me, change is like walking through the curtain of drops in a waterfall.

There exists space on each side--the before and the after.

I spent the entire month of June on one side, waiting to see if

the private school where I taught would open the doors this fall.

As I listened to the voicemail that declared a waterfall of change,

I looked at the other side and saw the synonyms:

refashioning, remaking, transformation, metamorphosis.

 I've been given the opportunity to 

teach kindergarten in a large public school district.

A new adventure, a story waiting to be told,

a gift that wouldn't have been made possible without

change.

I think the time is right for a butterfly tattoo!
