Kindergartners Surprises Their Beloved Custodian By Singing ‘Happy Birthday’ In Sign

Kindergartners surprised their deaf custodian on his 60th birthday, by learning “Happy Birthday” in sign language in a Tennessee elementary school.

James Anthony, or Mr. James, as he is known at school, has “been a part of Hickerson Elementary’s family” in Tullahoma, Tennessee, for 15 years, said school nurse Angela Ridner, and the school wanted to give him a very special surprise.

The school’s kindergarten kids learned to sing in sign “Happy Birthday,” with help from teachers. This heartwarming video posted to the school’s Facebook page shows Anthony walking into a room where the kids and a few adults are, and they begin to sign, and sing, “Happy Birthday” to him. Anthony is taken aback and smiles, his smile grows wider as the kids finish their performance.

Verse of the Day

“[Jesus Predicts His Death a Third Time] Now Jesus was going up to Jerusalem. On the way, he took the Twelve aside and said to them, “We are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and the teachers of the law. They will condemn him to death and will hand him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified. On the third day he will be raised to life!””

Matthew 20: 17-19
