Make A Wish... Now BLOW!

WOW! What a week! I have enjoyed every crazy, hectic, fun filled moment of celebration this week as we have relived ten years of relationships, risk taking and results! I cherished the smiles of recognition as we journeyed through time on the Magic School Bus and by visiting the CCE Museum. I loved seeing new and old faculty and students alike sharing in our favorite books of the month. I celebrated as we danced the chicken dance and sang Happy Birthday with the most fun students on the planet at our birthday party. I swelled with pride as our family joined together in a human CCE for the fabulous aerial photo. I wept with gratitude as I read the wonderful C is for Chets Creek book that you and your students wrote. You captured our past, present and future beautifully.


Thanks to one of our business partners I am able to gift this very special frame to each on you. They were placed in your mailboxes today. (The crown frames are on back order so for those of you that didn't get yours' today - you will soon - I promise!)
No need for me to blow out the candles - I'll leave that job up to you. My wish came true a long time ago. I work in the best school in the country, with the most talented teachers in the world and spend my days with the most awesome students in the universe. What more could anyone ask for?
Believing is just the beginning...

Susan,

While part of me will be glad to get back to our "normal" routine, I sure did have a blast over the last week! I thank you and all others involved in making the birthday such a hoot. The party at the Doctor's house was a very fitting end to an awesome week. I hope I am still here in 2018. My kids will be grown, and I'll really be able to let my hair down...As for awesome and talented, it takes one to know one!

I loved this past week. Even the 1st graders got excited about the school being open before they were born. I can't wait to see what the next 10 years will bring for us all. :)Michelle

What a special week it was for our CCE students. My daughter got in the car Friday and said, "I never want this week to end." I said, "Why?" She said, "Because it was so special!" Thanks for making it possible. :)
