An image of Imaginative and Ideal former students of mine, (Leah, David, and Max) who graduated high school 11 years ago. Last Sunday we spent some time together to honor Max's 30th birthday. Since Leah and I also have September birthdays, it was a celebratory occasion.
Linking to ABC WEDNESDAY

ReplyDeleteHappy B-Day!
You must have had a feeling of "Nothing like the Good Old Days" ;.)
ReplyDeletebright, shiny faces! how neat they stay in touch and celebrate with you, too!
ReplyDeleteThere is something about a September Birthday that simply calls for celebrating.
ReplyDeleteYou must have been a great teacher if your students keep in touch after 11 years!
ReplyDeleteAn excellent group portrait!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Halcyon - it takes some effort to stay in touch with a teacher, especially through college & the 20s.
ReplyDeleteHappy September birthday!
Sounds like you all had a nice time. The relationships are priceless!!
ReplyDeleteOh to be 30 again.
ReplyDeleteThat is happy moment of togetherness well framed. :)
ReplyDeleteI still remember fondly some of my teachers, they had a great influence and some faults for what I am now...
ReplyDeletenice. And happy birthday to you!
ReplyDeleteROG, ABCW
Nice photo of young people, great you are still in contact with them.
ReplyDeleteGreat you have booked your tour already for the next year.You have something to looking forward for a long time!
What a nice compliment to you that they want to meet with you after eleven years!
ReplyDeleteI too am impressed that you kept such friendly contacts with your former students.
ReplyDeleteIn France relationships between students and teachers or university professors remain extremely formal and un-personal. I can't think of anything like your birthday celebration happening here and it's a shame.
