First of all, it was 1950s day at school, so I had to wear that poodle skirt I'd made a few years ago for the Diner Dinner. And I had some great company.
Then, a week before, I had made it through the whole day without the students finding out that it was my birthday. When the seniors figured it out a week later and asked if they could throw me a party, I couldn't resist. And it just so happened that it was the 1950s day the same day that it worked out to have the birthday party. They ordered pizza and presented me with a fabulous cake. Then they added in fruit, flowers, truffles, and a lot of fun. This week, they're on their senior trip to Wyoming, and I must admit that I do miss them a lot.
