True friends

This is the fun gang I had lunch with today - the middle school teachers, bookkeeper, and administrative assistant from my school, left to right - Renee G, Cathy D, Darla M, Deb H, Lib K. We were at Lib's lovely home. Actually, we were also joined by a former middle school teacher, Melissa N, but she had already left by the time I remembered to pull out my camera. Each one is a very dear friend of mine, and it's hard for me to think of them being at school without me. We have so much fun together, we care about each other and our families, our joys and sorrows. I can just be me with them, and they love me. I will really, really miss them.
