will I ever love again?
I don't love my kids. On a lot of days, I don't even like them. I was just talking to another teacher who is having similar doubts about her attachment to her students. We agreed that there was something special about the first time... My relationships last year were such an important part of my classroom. I'm just not sure how things are going to pan out. I know these things take time, but this year everything feels like it's my job, not my life, and that is a very different feeling.

That might be a good thing that work is feeing like a job rather than an all-consuming life. Your trepidation may just be rooted in that your feelings are different than what you have been used to. It's a lot easier to find work-life balance when you have both work and a life, rather than only having an all-consuming school-life.
