Fifteen years spent in the field of education has provided me with many treasured moments. One of the most unforgettable 26 when I was teaching second 27 10 years ago.
In May I decided to plan something special for the children：a Mother’s Day tea. We had put our heads together to 28 ideas of how to 29 our mothers. We practiced singing songs, memorized poems and wrote cards. We decided to hold our tea the Friday before Mother’s Day. I was surprised but 30 to learn that every mother was planning to attend. I 31 invited my own mother.
Finally, the big day arrived. Each child 32 up at our classroom door, expecting the arrival of his or her mom. 33 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 34
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 35 if you could keep my mother 36 while I’m busy.”
My mom and Jimmy sat at a table. Jimmy 37 my mom her treats, presented her with the gift I had made, just as we had 38 the day before. Whenever I looked over, my mother and Jimmy were in deep 39 .
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 40 and an evaluation of our trip. Then I collected the students’ booklets and checked them to see if 41 was completed. When I came 42 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 43 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 44 it.”
I ended my workday with a hug from a teenage boy who had 45 stopped hugging teachers years ago.
