October 10

Happy Thanksgiving!

I wish you could have been a fly on the wall of our classroom yesterday as the children listed the things they are thankful for. You have raised thankful children.

Of course I knew that before yesterday. I think this class has already said, "Thank you," more often than any other class I've ever taught. Besides the regular thank yous I hear when I hand out paper or other supplies, I've had several children thank me for helping them with a tough problem and others who just come up to say, "Thank you for teaching me."

In a society that is increasingly self-absorbed, your children stand out as thoughtful and grateful.

And I say, "Thank you for sending such delightful children to school each morning."
