My goodness π₯Ί
I really do not have the words to say how I feel.
The absolute heartbreak of waving off one class after another and then I came home and opened your cards and gifts and those blasted allergies started up all over again π©π.
I'm so sorry If I seemed extra short, bouncy or avoided eye contact with you altogether this weekend, I had to try and get through without sobbing uncontrollably. I know a few of you nearly got me going π.
I have honestly never felt such pure happiness in all my life, as I have felt with my time at WLGC π€ΈββοΈ.
Your children, (that goes for past and present) are the most amazing, funny, kind hearted human beings I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I have laughed more in 8 years than i have in the whole 30 before it.
Wholeheartedly what an 8 years its been!!
Thank you so so much.
Knowing you as parents and knowing your children has not only made me a better person, its made me a better coach ( and most definitely a smarter one ,the amount of geography they have taught me is shocking, literallyπ€―π).
Last week whilst me and my son were away, it cemented the decision that I would need to take a bit of time away from the club and on Thursday i made the announcement. Since then I have received nothing but kindness and support from you all.
Nothing will stop these allergies this evening but you really are the most amazing parents a coach could ever wish for π©·.
I will be reading /replying/sending messages and doing refunding for the last class tomorrow evening as I dont want super duper puffy eyes for college tomorrow ππ€§
I am hoping some time off will be all thats needed and we can restart again in the future but we shall see how things go.
If the children ever need any help with anything, i am only ever a phone call, text or WhatsApp away π«Άπ.
So its not goodbye, its goodbye for now β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ.
