Keegan's school party

Although Keegan's birthday was two months ago, his Grade One class had a little combined party for all the birthdays that occurred in July or August. Another child's mother organised a fantastic cake to share, snacks, and little party treats for all the students in the class.

I had very little to do with organising the event, simply slipping out of my class for ten minutes to share the occasion with Keegan.

Here are some of the notes that students wrote to Keegan, following the party:

Dear Keegan, thank you for the kake.

You are so nice I like to play with you and I like you so much.

Dear Keegan, happy burthday.

Hi you Keegan. You are my best friend. I love you.

Thank you for the cake and the fish biscuits and gifts. I really want to be your friend. I will give only you a special gift. I wish you will never be absent any day.

Thank you and your mom for that cake. That cake was yummy and we all love it.

Happy birthday. I always sit with you.

Dear Keegan. I like you because you are so good at soccer but you had to pass the ball to me or Samuel but yesterday you do your best and me too and Samuel and I like you so much and I will be your team.
