The Phone Call

Though I have only had the girls in Elementary School for two years, I have never gotten a phone call from a teacher.

Until yesterday.

Emma's Chinese teacher called me yesterday afternoon. Ugh. No one ever wants this phone call.

But, it was good news as her teacher was inviting her over for a playdate with her son, who is in Emma's class.

I thought this was a wonderful compliment to Emma as we are on Spring Break, and I think that if I was a teacher, on Spring Break, I would not want to have one of my students over to my house. I would take my five day break and run with it.

Emma is a great girl. She works really hard and is obviously well liked by her fellow students and teachers alike. She was also one of the students chosen to perform in a special Chinese choir next week when some officials visit the school. She is one of just twelve students who were picked, and her teachers specified that she was chosen because she is a great student. She's a fabulous kid! Keep those phone calls coming!
