This year my Mother retired from 25 years of teaching. She was a wonderful teacher and many children in the valley have been touched by her through her career. About a week before school was out her school had a party for her and one other teacher that was retiring that year. It was fun to attend and see all the different people in her school, in the community and students thought our her teaching come and celebrate with her.
A few days after school was out our family had a party for our Mother to celebrate her teaching career. We held it at the Riverwood conference center. It was so nice and beautiful their.
Grandma and Grandpa with our family, and the Grandchildren. Also we were blessed to have Grandma Pickett there too.
Little A loved running around so Adam had to hold him while we were out side so he would not get into the water. Steve and Carolyn came too. It is always nice to have them with our family.
After we ate a wonderful dinner we had a nice program. Lance welcomed and Ryan closed things, it was nice to here by brother talk about their Mother. It is different to hear great things about a Mom from her sons than it is from her daughters. The Grandchildren recited a poem that Kim had written for them, Little A party was "Panda's Rule, She had fun at school". He had it memorized and it was so cute to hear him say it. To end the night Jeff and Jodi had put together a wonderful movie for my Mom about her career and the future.
