This week (after 40+ years) I wrote a letter to my 7th grade teacher, who I adored. (Among other things, she read The Lottery to us. Didn’t everybody love that teacher?) Guys, she wrote back! 😃😃😃 For anybody who needs to conjure a bit of happiness this week, I highly reco writing to a fave teacher.
