The B stands for Beatrice. Except I don’t like Beatrice. I just like B and that’s all. I go to school in Room Nine. Room Nine is where they have afternoon kindergarten. Also they have morning kindergarten. Only I am not familiar with that arrangement. Today at school, my teacher had a ’nouncement to make. A ’nouncement is the school word for listen to me…and I MEAN it. My teacher’s name is Mrs. She has another name, too. But I just like Mrs. and that’s all. Mrs. told us that we are going to have a special day in Room Nine. And it is called Valentime’s Day. She said that valentimes are special cards about friendship. And all of us in Room Nine are going to give them to each other! My bestest friend Lucille squealed real happy. “Oooo! I love getting cards, Teacher!” she said. “I especially love getting the kind with money in them. Money is my favorite kind of mail!” “Me, too, Lucille!” I said. “Money is my favorite kind of mail, too. Plus also I enjoy the Publishers Clearing House sweepstakes.” Mrs. did a chuckle. “Well, I’m sorry, girls. But I’m afraid there won’t be money in our valentines,” she said. “In Room Nine we will just be sending happy wishes to each other. But it will still be lots of fun.” She smiled. “We will be making a special valentines box to hold all the cards. And on the day of our party, I will personally deliver the cards to each one of you,” she explained. Just then, I jumped right out of my chair. ’Cause nobody even mentioned a party before! “Hurray!” I yelled. “Hurray for parties! Can we have cake and doughnuts, Mrs.? And what about cheese popcorn and cotton candy and pretzels and candy apples?” I thought some more. “Plus also we’ll need red licorice and peanut butter cups, probably. And chocolate-covered raisins. Oh yeah, and malted milk balls!
