In today’s world of electronic messages, the invitation came to visit the ELC (Hudson School District’s Early Learning Center) -what was known as the Library Street School and H. O. Smith School- as it was the 100th day of kindergarten and the students had dressed up for the special day.
Upon arrival for the “newspaper guy,” all of a sudden the world was smaller, and, as you went down the hallway, all these students came out of their rooms dressed as 100-year-old adults. It was a 60-degree winter day with full sunshine, so outside we went, and half of the 100-year-old pretenders sat on the wall as the ones with canes (no disrespect to canes) were in front. Several pictures later we were done (you know how those make-believe centenarians can’t all look at once). The baggy nylons were one of the best costume elements as demonstrated by Mia. And a big “thumbs up” to the work of the moms and dads who made this happen.
