Birthday Love

I was feeling all down on my way to work tonight. I had invited out a bunch of friends to go out to dinner with me and hubby tomorrow to celebrate my birthday (which isn't until Saturday), and they all had plans. So I was all sad and feeling sorry for myself.
Then I got to work, and my students had brought me: 1. two dozen peach roses, 2. birthday balloons and 3. red velvet cupcakes.
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW I was so uplifted. I even ate a cupcake (although I wanted to avoid those calories, I didn't want to hurt her feelings). Since I haven't had dinner yet, I can make that cupcake fit into today's calories...but on sugar I am WAY over. LOL
How sweet are my students? AND, to top it off, the girl who brought the roses and cupcakes...it's HER birthday tonight! Is she selfless or what!?
It's hard a lot of the time, and I get discouraged, but when it's good, it's great to be a teacher...
