WoW!Jan, You gave a good narrative to the painting. Your interpretation of the painting was so endearing. It's a great reminder of how special teachers are. Aren't you a teacher too? Congratulations on your 1st place win. It was well deserved. Have a great day:-) Alexi

Hi Jan, this is a treat to read, it isn't often that teachers and pupils click, but junior school students are still at the age that they are very demonstrative and giving. I'm glad they all love each other. Touching poem Jan. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Aw, this is really nice. The way it should be (and should have been... The stories I've heard from people about school in America from 1900 - 1950 have permanently curled my hair. lol). Sweetness and Light, Jan. :) gw
