how old?

Tomorrow is my 39th birthday. I thank my Lord for blessing me all these years.

Last week, I told my youngest students (5 and 6 yrs. old) that I was turning 100. They believed me. Now, remember, being 15 is ancient to them. Today, I was asked by another class (of the same age) how old I was going to be. I told this class that I was going to be 100. Three students said, "Wow! Really?" Another student said, "No, you can't be 100. Then you would be really tall!"
Another sharp student said, "You cannot be 100. How old are you really?" I told her my real age. She then said, "Oh, well, 39 is close to 100."

I love my life.
