"Did you know my sister plays the trumpet?"

by Erica

"Mrs. Heddings, Mrs. Heddings, did you know...?"I have never heard my name so many times in one day. These sweet little voices call out to me to tell me anything and everything. It is actually scary how much I know about their lives after two days of school.

I have a great class of 22 first graders. They are so little and so innocent. They bring me apples, and give me many hugs. They are at the age where they can't wait to learn to read and want to please their teacher. I think this is going to be a great year.

I'm guessing that I'm not the sister who plays the trumpet.

Their lives will never be the same again after having you making such a positive, lasting impact on them. I wish I was a first grader again.

Your room looks great, Honey! I'm so very glad that you have a good group this year. Jason is going to appreciate that also :) You will be able to go home happy each day, instead of frustrated.

I love you!!! Mom

Hey Erica,

Sorry to say I just went Saturday and I just used my last coupon although I can try and get some more. You might see if Tiff is going again.

By the way, I think all the kids in your class will be blessed to have you as their teacher this year!

I wish I could be in first grade again and have you for a teacher.

I miss you!

Love,
Emily
