Fifteen years spent in the field of education has provided me with many treasured moments. One of the most unforgettable moments 1     when I was teaching second 2     10 years ago.

In May I decided to plan something special for the children:a Mother' s Day tea party. We had put our heads together to 3     ideas of how to 4      our mothers. We practiced singing songs,memorized poems and wrote cards. We decided to hold our tea party the Friday before Mother's Day. I was surprised but 5     to learn that every mother was planning to attend. I 6     invited my own mother.

Finally,the big day arrived. Each child 7      up at our classroom door,expecting the arrival of his or her mom. 8      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 9      .

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 10      if you could keep my mother 11     while I, m busy?”

My mom and Jimmy sat at a table. Jimmy 12      my mom her treats,presented her with the gift I had made,just as we had 13      the day before. Whenever I looked over,my mother and Jim?my were in deep 14      .

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 15      and an evaluation of our trip. Then I collected the students' booklets and checked them to see if 16      was completed. When I came 17      Jimmy, s page,he had written "Remember our Mother's Day tea party 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 18      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 19      it."

I ended my workday with a hug from a teenage boy who had 20      stopped hugging teachers years ago.
