In my country, they say a teacher's reward is in heaven but I disagree. As a teacher, it always gladdens the heart when you see or hear your students succeed in their life endeavors. I remember the feeling of pride I had when all my students passed their university entrance exams with ease, no one failed and they are all doing well.
The role we have of shaping the lives of these young ones is a very important one that we should be proud of. Your boy looks handsome...if you don't mind my saying so.Lol.
I am proud of the teaching profession. You must feel so proud of your students.
