We practiced singing songs, memorized poems and wrote cards. We decided to hold our tea the Friday before Mother’s Day. I was surprised and to learn that every mother was planning to attend. I invited my own mother.
Finally, the big day arrived. Each child up at our classroom door, expecting the arrival of his or her mom. it got closer to starting time, I looked around and my eyes quickly found Jimmy. His mother hadn’t shown up and he was looking .
I took my mother by the hand and walked over to Jimmy. “Jimmy,” I said, “I have a bit of problem here and I was if you could keep my mother while I’m busy.”
My mom and Jimmy sat at a table. Jimmy my mom her treats, presented her with the gift I had made, just as we had the day before. Whenever I looked over, my mother and Jimmy were in deep .
Now 10 years later, I work with students of all ages, educating them about the environment. Last year, I took a senior class on a field trip, and there was Jimmy. I had the students complete an outline of the day’s and an evaluation of our trip. Then I collected the students’ booklets and checked them to see if was completed. When I came Jimmy’s page, he had written “Remember our Mother’s Day tea we had in second grade, Mrs. Marra? I do! Thanks for all you did for me, and thank your mother, too.”
I told him I really enjoyed what he had written. He looked rather embarrassed and his own thanks and walked away. Suddenly he ran back and gave me a big hug. “Thanks again. No one even knew my mother didn’t it.”
I ended my workday with a hug from a teenage boy who had stopped hugging teachers years ago.
