The Fifth Post

This post is dedicated to the beautiful but brilliant Mrs. Lawson. (No more sucking up will take place, all words following are spoken in seriousness....enjoy!)

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you. Not just for teaching me history, but teaching me how to understand. You teach in a way that helps the student open their eyes to the world and pay heed to how the world around them works and how the situations nations faced are caused by how the history played out in that area. You are the first teacher (of my knowing) to beautifully integrate history with current issues and teach the relation between the two. So thank you for this year but I am more greatful for the memories and new ways of thinking you have given me that I will take beyond this year. So for the final time.....thank you.
