How Old Are You

How old are you? One hundred and twenty-five I reply. Second graders gasp. Sixty-eight sounds young now.

This makes me smile Christopher. You are my cheerleader and I thank you. Trixie is a minx; she is blowing you kisses.

Caren indeed you may have the life or worldly experience of a 100+ year's Lady. Yet still young enough at heart to relate to your youthful charges

I am ridiculously young. The kids are always grabbing me to help find a grown up. I love that!

I feel brand new every time I get to see a bunch of first graders. It happened for me today and it was delightful!
