We received teacher assignments and Dad went straight to the teacher websites to see what they were like. Mom pulled the first one up for Elizabeth’s teacher. She has been there several years and a friend of ours had her two years ago and loved her. Sounds like a win for us! Then Mom clicked to Ben’s teacher. Her jaw dropped. Dad was immediately worried. Mom said – “it isn’t bad, there are just no words.” Finally – “she was my first grade teacher!” Yes, Ben has the teacher that taught Mom in first grade 28 years ago! Wow! She was in a different school and district at the time, but has been in our school district for 25 years now. Mom is just a little beside herself and pretty eager to “meet” the teacher. In preparation, we have enjoyed looking at old yearbooks, especially seeing what Mom looked like in the first grade. Ben’s face was priceless when we told him the news. It was a combination of excitement and maybe a little horror. It is going to be a great year!!
