OK, let me set up this scenario. Got in late last night...so am dragging into class a little later than my usual 8:40...slid my ID in the security slot...but the door was partially open??? I stepped into the classroom and SURPISE!!! My students had planned and perfectly implemented a surprise birthday party for me this morning!!!! My birthday is actually tomorrow so I was completely thrown off. They were all blowing noisemakers and yelling AARGH at the same time. (I'll explain that in a minute). I was so surprised and pleased that they went to so much trouble just for my silly old person's birthday. There was cake and sparkling cider (non-alcoholic for the school rule followers), flowers, fairy princess napkins and plates, a beautiful card, cheesecake for later and washcloths (private joke: Brits don't believe in washcloths) and pirate eye patches. They constantly amaze me with their thoughtfulness! I think they have been taking care of me more than I have been taking care of them! Oh and back to the pirate accessories... apparently there was some disagreement as to what the party theme should be: Fairy Princesses or Pirates....so they did both! AWESOME! I love you guys! Thank you so much!!!
