In May I decided to plan something special for the children: a Mother's Day tea. We had put our heads together to 38 ideas of how to 39 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 and 40 to learn that every mother was planning to attend. I 41 invited my own mother.
Finally, the big day arrived. Each child 42 up at our Classroom door, expecting the arrival of his or her mom. 43 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 44 .
I took my mother by the hand and walked over to Jimmy. "Jimmy," I said, "I have a bit of problem here and l was 45 if you could keep my mother 46 while I'm busy."
My mom and Jimmy sat at a table. Jimmy 47 my mom her treats, presented her with the gift I had made, just as we had 48 the day before. Whenever I looked over, my mother and Jimmy were in deep 49 .
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 50 and an evaluation of our trip. Then I collected the students' booklets and checked them to see if 51 was completed. When I came 52 Jimmy's page, he had written "Remember our Mother's Day tea we had in the second grade, Mrs. Matra? 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 53 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 54 it."
I ended my workday with a hug from a teenage boy who had 55 stopped hugging teachers years ago.
