It's a Friday after 5pm and I just arrived home from a VERY long day at work--but I had students willing to stay to work on improving their grade---How can I say no to that? Thank you for sharing such a beautiful & personal sentiment---they may be crazy teenagers, but they are VERY perceptive.<br /><br />Hugs & Blessings!Mom2Da'Gorgeouseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11761093197656867214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6710167307274471154.post-42088837788230029862010-03-05T17:32:09.102-08:002010-03-05T17:32:09.102-08:00So sweet, her sentiments, her concern, her taking ...So sweet, her sentiments, her concern, her taking the time to share both with you.Debbie Pearsonhttp://www.creativechics.com/cchicsblognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6710167307274471154.post-40786835990166402482010-03-05T17:03:50.734-08:002010-03-05T17:03:50.734-08:00High School teachers are amazing.
