Jordan and I are coaching a Lego Robotics team again this year. Last year we jumped in and very much just figured things out as we went along. I'd usually finish each meeting worrying about all the things that didn't go as smoothly as I'd wished, and Jordan would reassure me - we're doing it, we're learning, and it doesn't matter if things go perfectly!
Last week we met for the first time with this year's new group of kids, and I've felt a bit anxious about it all as we're still very much learning and I still want to do a good job. Yesterday at school pick up one of the kids from our team walked past and then called back over his shoulder to me "Lego Robotics tomorrow! Yay!" And it was just the perfect little encouragement that I needed!
