20111120 Thank You, Diana.


Awakened by a call at 9am this morning.
The number indicated a long distance call from Taipei.
In a very beautiful accent the caller said, "Hello,is this B..?"
"Yes, may I know who's calling please?" I said.
"This is Diana."
"I only know of two Dianas.  The Diana and the little girl Diana."
A slight hesitation at the other end...
Certain that she must be the little girl Diana and the only Diana I've known,
I said,"Tell me where we got acquainted."
"S St." she said.
"Yes, you are the little girl Diana."
I also talked to her mom.
The hour on the phone brought back memories.
Recollections dated back 20 years ago.
I got to thank her mom for the support she has given me.
I got to thank her for entrusting me with the task of getting 
her precious little one to read.
I am so blessed.  Six years with a child is more than I can ask for.
She is now teaching.
I now have someone to refer to when asked about TOEIC & TESOL.
