I loved my first grade teacher, too, but didn't have that kind of experience with her. I don't think I wore gloves, but a summer hat, yes! It was special to go to tea with her.

Did you wear your little white gloves and a hat? Your little white anklet socks etc.? I am sure your visits meant as much to Mrs. Mueller as they did to you. I bet she has had a big influence on your life. Like how you love to do so much with those special grandgirls. I was lucky to have a first grade teacher, Mrs. Burgess, who encouraged me and invited me for dinner and a picnic. Not a lot of visits but enough to have had an impact. I wish there was a lot more decency in a gentle way in this day and age, but I also know that sometimes rough edges does not always mean lack of caring. But I may just be getting old. I see kindness and positive talk and encouragement as strength not old-fashioned customs. Different times. Terrific memories.
