birthday wishes from students

Being in the classroom with twenty-two 8 and 9 year-olds can drive me crazy...but on days like a 31st birthday, being in a room with twenty-two 8 and 9 year-olds keeps me from going crazy! On the way to school, I was feeling sad about this birthday, which is very out of character for me. I told a co-worker, "I just want it to go away." Then the students came in and began showering me with homemade cards and sweet birthday wishes.
You're not really getting old...just think of it as getting another year closer to total awesomeness.

How could a girl stay sad after such words of adoration? It turned my day around. I am so lucky to have these gems in my life! We've had a great year that I will cherish.
