Our friend Kricket retired yesterday. She’s been a teacher for many years, and although she loves a lot of things about it, and has a special spot in her heart for her eighth-grade homeroom students, she felt it was time to move into a new phase of life. So naturally we threw her a (small) party.
We blew up balloons, made a banner, and even bought party hats we could wear at a “jaunty angle”. We made some homemade pizza and enjoyed a movie. And after all this partying (and relaxing) I’m excited to see what she decides to do next…
