This past summer, I was honored by the Colorado Council of Teachers of Mathematics as the 2017 Outstanding Secondary Mathematics Teacher for Region 2. One for each region of the State. I didn't post this in September when it happened, because, honestly, it felt really weird to have people congratulating me. And then life showed up and it got lost as it moved farther down the 'to do' list.
I spent some time this past week reflecting on 2017. While going through my journal I was reminded of this wonderful little event. Part of my desire for this next year is to celebrate more. This is my first attempt.

My school district even gave me a shout out on Twitter:

I'm very thankful to all of the wonderful educators I've worked side-by-side with over the years and those who I've had the pleasure of interacting with online through the #MTBoS. Thank you for your kind words, your wisdom, your patience, and your friendship. I'm so very humbled that I get to be on this journey with such quality people. Without a doubt, I'm a better teacher because of your encouragement to try new things and to fail early and often. You all are the best! I truly believe we are better together. Always.
