Every day I am grateful for the two women that spend 6+ hours with my children and their classmates each day. I can tell that teaching is not a “job” for either of these fabulous teachers–it is a calling. Teachers give so much of themselves to their classes and sometimes parents overlook that.
I would like to take the time to say Thank You to both Pork Chop’s and Pea’s teachers!
This week my top picks for the Family Fun Friday link ups are centered around showing appreciation to the great teachers in our lives!
Birds of A {Buttoned} Feather I love this idea. My son’s teacher loves owls and I can see her loving a similar gift made with owls. The buttons are the perfect touch!

Fizzy Bath Bombs At the end of a long day, nothing is quite as relaxing as a quiet bath. These are sure to be a hit.
Teacher’s appreciation week is the first week of May for us. We will be spending this weekend making something up to go with the gift card we’ve purchased. I can’t tell you how comforting it is to have such wonderful teachers in our school. I truly appreciate both of them!
Onto the Link Party!

These are great tips Herchel! I will need all the ideas I can get since the end of the school year is approaching and I’d really love to get something for my sons’ teacher. She’s truly AMAZING and you’re right that teaching is not a “job” it’s a “calling” – it’s insane how much devotion, time and energy goes into making a classroom a well-oiled machine. That’s probably why I’m not a teacher Lol 🙂 Have a great weekend Herchel! -Iva
