Today is The Boy’s last day of preschool.
Amazing how time flies
And these little babies turn into real life human beings!
To mark the special occasion
I racked my brain as usual to try to come up with a perfect little gift.
I usually spend days fretting over it,
Wanting to get every teacher there something,
But staying within budget.
Then I wonder if my gifts are totally lame.
You read articles from teachers who are so tired of the same lame ol’ gifts!
Maybe they don’t word it that way, but I’m pretty sure that’s what they mean.
Oh geez, another teacher pin or pen…
Whooppeee…
Thanks kid!
Since there’s 5 classes and the kids graduate up into each one,
That was a lot of gift giving!
I can’t forget about the teacher in the 1st class that had to deal with his crying when he first started or clean and change him after a few accidents.
His 2nd teacher that was there to be stern with him when he tried to see just how much he could get away with in her class.
Or his last teacher that has taught him how to write every single one of his letters in the alphabet, all of his numbers, began math lessons, and of course prepared him for the next 12 years ofthe dreaded homework at the ripe age of 4!
I had grand ideas of buying each teacher a great gift
Or dinner
Or giftcard to their favorite store.
I also thought about making them pictures of The Boy,
but maybe only a mother loves their kid that much!
Last night I decided to keep it plain and simple.
I stopped at the store and bought bunches of sunflowers
Big, beautiful, full stem sunflowers
I broke out the craft box
And me and The Boy got down with the stamps,
Glue sticks, scissors, and ribbon.
I know his Daddy was so proud when he walked in
And saw his boy sitting there in an array of crafts!
He worked hard on his little cards.
Once he even spelled his name completely backwards
started at the last letter and made it to the first
but put it in the right order.
Pretty talented that little guy!
I should sign him up for America's Got Talent or something

We got to school this morning and he handed them to his teachers
one by one. 
And guess what, each one of them had tears stream down their face
And guess what, each one of them had tears stream down their face
as I thanked them.
Sweet...
I think they liked them!
