I am a little jealous of knowing in the fourth grade that you were going to be a writer.

For me, it was Mrs. Zielinski, my fourth grade teacher, who opened that door when she let my friends and me perform the plays I had written for the class, and sometimes, the whole school. Discovering your passion is a remarkable, and often rare, thing. And it takes even more courage to follow it. Well done!Trudi Trueithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11088052911868590247noreply@blogger.com
