Dear Rachel,
I am so excited to see how your senior year of college is going. It will not be long before you will be graduating and preparing to teach and meet your new students! I am sure you are both excited and nervous, but you are so close to achieving your dream of being an elementary school teacher. Have you already started your student teaching? Where are you student teaching? What are your students like? I hope you remember that even when things are hard or challenging, just how hard you have worked and how long you have dreamed of this! I hope you are beginning to see all of your hard work pay off and that you have confidence in your abilities. I cannot wait to see what the future holds!
