delighted - Story 24195 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

“And last but not least, for the Kindergarten class, Mr. Davies!” I let out a whoop. My son, Mark, would be in Mr. Davies' class. He was the most encouraging teacher, the one who saw potential in everyone. This was the best news I’d had all year. I felt an energy surge.

I immediately began to daydream about all the wonderful experiences my son would have. I remembered the field trips, the class plays, the way Mr. Davies made everyone feel special. I knew Mark was in good hands.
