What a Surprise
Yesterday afternoon I was blown away by something that happened in my classroom. We were about halfway through our math lesson when the classroom door opened. When I turned around there were two parents pushing a cart with cupcakes, juice and gifts. When they entered the room all of the children in the class yelled "Surprise!" Unknown to me, my aide and these two parents coordinated a surprise baby shower for me. They had been working on it for a couple of weeks. Kids knew, parents knew and other teachers knew. I think that I may have been the only one in the building that didn't know. It was awesome! I feel like I work with the greatest people in the world and this goes to show me that I really do work with wonderful people and that I have great kids and parents. I will never forget what they did for me. It was a great afternoon!

This is not just a sign of how great the people you are surrounded with are--this is a sign of how great you are! This sort of kindness is inspired by how valued you are. Congratulations!
