Hi Ladies,
I thought we could take a trip down memory lane today.

What teacher do you remember most?
Why?

Let's give thanks to some of these very special people of service and how they truly can help to make a difference in the life of our youth.

Ann, this is beautiful!
I also hate my handwriting....
Lol, maybe I need to re-lean too!
Thank so very much for sharing.
It's nice to hear how Mrs. Jewel took you under her wind.
Sometimes a caring teacher can really make a huge difference for a child.

Hello,
Wow, what an emotial time for you to remember.
I went to Arlington Cem. last month and we saw the grave sites of some of the people who lost their lives on Challenger....
Thank you so much for sharing.
It's nice to hear that this teacher is still in your thoughts today.

It would have to be my high school biology teacher, Mr. Olander.

She was wonderful, and I adored her.


But my father's temperament wasn't typical of the Irish, or anybody else.

Hello,
That must have been difficult.
We have a lot of illness in our family too...
The best way I know how to take care of it is to just have things be better for the next generation. Let your kids have the childhood you wish you had.
Thanks so much for sharing.

Awesome! What a positive role model!
You are right, it's too bad more teachers are not like that.
Good for you, going into teaching.... I am sure one day a student will write something about you :o)

Take care,
Johanna
