Hello @lizelle ,

Yes, thank Mrs. Birdsall. What a woman. When my brother was bedridden at home with rheumatic fever she came to the house (what a house...that's another story) to teach him so he wouldn't be left back. He was five years older than I was. By the time I got to her class she knew what was going on at home. She took extra care with me. I'm not sure she knew I could be helped, but she tried. I took off like a bullet in her class.

God bless good teachers, and good mothers.
