that she was wondering where I had come up with such a question. Losing Jenna would be like losing a
very close sister. We hung out together. We gave each other advice.
"Of course, we"ll still be friends when we"re eighty-two." Jenna announced loudly.
The next year, in the fourth grade, we met Jamie. The three of us soon became close friends. We
played together almost every day. I thought even time couldn"t pull us apart, but I was sadly mistaken.
The three of us started fighting a lot. Before Christmas, we had a really big fight, and Jamie a
nd Jenna were against me, both saying I was bossy. I felt helpless and lonely. I thought Christmas would
be horrible!
I was surprised when Jenna came to my house and gave me an awesome Christmas card she had
made for me. I was so sure that she was still disappointed with me.
"Wow, " I said, breaking the silence as we stood on either side of my front door. "Thanks."
"Okay…well…I have to go," she said softly.
" Okay. See you later then…"and I closed the door.
"Who was that at the door?" my mum asked.
The card started off with "Merry Christmas", but then it said, "I am so glad we"re friends. I am sorry
about what I said when we were fighting. A fight won"t stop us from being friends. Besides, we said we
were going to be friends even when we"re eight-two."
I stopped reading and started laughing. I couldn"t believe I had forgotten what she said that day in
her back yard. I couldn"t believe I had been so selfish in trying to get even an
d making my friends feel sorry for me that I had forgotten about real friendship.

| My son was a second-grader. He went to school by bus every day. He was the first student on in the morning , as we were farthest from school, and the last student off in the evening. I was a teacher myself and it was a comfort to realize the school staff were all working as hard as I was to provide a safe learning environment. One day I came home from work and waited for my son to get home for a long time. Then I called the school. " perhaps he"s just a bit late," said the secretary. " I will call the driver to see if those children are home." A few minutes later, I answered the phone to hear that the other students were home. Then I called his friends" parents, to see if pe  rhaps he had gotten off at their stop to play. The answers were all " No"By that time, it was dark and I was scared. My home was in the mountain areas. My husband wasn"t at home, so I forced myself to calm down and decided to go out to look for him.

But two notes, from the girls who I 13 drew the picture, had a list of issues. I was too 14 , too strict… Reading those notes, I realized that over the course of this year, instead of 15 my students, I had begun commanding them to 16 .
