Visiting the old school where I worked for many, many years!
Meeting old friends/staff I worked with and seeing students in the summer school...
Some students whom I last saw 8 years ago STILL remember me...
especially one teenager (whom I taught in the preschool) looked at me as soon as I walked in the room;
he fingerspelled "P.E." I said "Yes" but I didn't know who he was. When he introduced himself,
I was surprised and said, "Oh my goodness...you were so little and you know who I am!"
Awww..isn't that sweeeeeet?!
