Elementary School through Junior high Second Grade In the Second grade, I had a teacher named Miss Ghetto. Her room had a huge shelf full of Potato Heads. She was probably the funniest teacher I ever had, she always had the best and funniest costumes for Halloween. It was the first year that we started to do spelling tests that were more than 5 words.

A knock came at the door of the study and Martin walked in, frowning. “Doctor Lihn said you were being abrasive again,” he said. “This isn’t helping me Martin,” I said, collapsing on the leather couch. “Why do you want me to see her?” “I just want to make you feel better,” Martin said, wrapping his arms around my shoulders.
