My last day was very emotional for everyone. My parents and brother came to class intending to have a little party. Instead of a
little party, my teacher and classmates made a big celebration! First, my teacher read something she had written (and got teary eyed as she read it), then I read something I wrote (and got teary eyed as I read it too!), and then the class mates raised their hands and took turns saying things they will remember me for. Then we took photos, had cookies and juice. My friend Aaron's mom gave me a cool soccer ball and Ben a stuffed animal - so sweet, she is a new immigrant from France and likely doesn't earn a lot of money so this was especially thoughtful! My classmates and teachers made me a really nice memory book and my teachers got me gifts. I had a great time and am bittersweet about leaving. I hope my class in Massachusetts can be pen pals with my Itamar class.
