Teaching my student's child

One day this week one of my favorite little boys came to me and asked if I knew Stephanie. I said, "Stephanie who?" He told me Stephanie Renteria. She would be about Tim's age. (Just think Tim, you could have a child in first grade.) She was one of my students when I was teaching my 4/5 combo my first year at Meadow Green. I liked her a lot. He then told me that she was his mother. I just couldn't believe it. I guess when I start to teach my student's children I am getting old and it is time to start thinking about retiring.

Jeremiah is the one that looks up at me and tells me I'm the best teacher ever.
