I got this email today from a former student from about 5 years ago, and am still cracking up about it:
Dear Mrs P,
Well, tomorrow is a great day. Tomorrow is the day that the past five years have been leading up to--the day that people changed to make happen. The past is broken, the limits have been reached, and our goal is finally ours. Tomorrow, Michael and I go to Exchange City! Guess making us miss it in fifth grade wasn't such a bad consequence after all!!! Our time has come!!! hahaha!
Just wanted you to know. We had to be good for five years longer than everyone else, but it finally happened, and the place we have spent all these years wondering about will become a reality for us. I love you anyway, and will still come visit you next week.

This kid gave me my first gray hair, and will grow up to be famous one day, I'd bet on it. It broke my heart to keep him and his partner in crime back at school on the biggest field trip day of the year. Good for him! I hope it is all he dreamed it would be, and more. Hahaha! Love it.
