Moments
...the thing about working with all these people in this high school is the moments.
...when a student comes to me for protection from another student, and I say, "Oh, she was here, but it was a mistake, she's being expelled." and watching him get giddy.
...when I see the movers walk by, after delivering my new tables. The crew lead had mentioned that he had a son at this school but had lost track (the mother had remarried, it was 10 year ago, etc.) and then seeing him walk down the center aisleway with his son.
...coming up for a new explanation, and having it work. (For the record, explaining exo vs. endo thermic. An egg is endothermic; it takes heat to hardboil it; if you stop after you start it doesn't keep generating heat. A candle is exothermic, once it starts it generates excess heat.)
