TO ALL THE TEACHERS OUT THERE..... A HUGE THANK YOU

To all the great teachers out there: I hope tomorrow that you were recognized for the excellent job you do each and every day. It is not as easy job, and often the manners of children leave a lot to be desired, but when you see a child turn around and have a real desire to learn the rewards are priceless. Having a husband who is a teacher and working in a school, I am well aware of the many many hours that teachers spend in their own time preparing interesting lessons, the hours and hours they spend after hours being there for their students or helping those that want to do well.

I've been busy this week.... busy making lots of little cards to let those teachers I work with know that they are valued and appreciated.

Lots of people think they have it easy with all the holidays they get each year, but I am hear to tell you that they wouldn't really get any more than what most people get if you take into consideration all the extra hours they do each evening and most weekends.  Unfortunately, teaching is not a job you can go to work and do and leave it there at the end of the day.  There is planning,  learning new things,   exam setting, exam marking, reports to write, homework to mark and the list goes on...There are very few nights in this household that my husband is not doing something that is school orientated.  So tomorrow I want to say a HUGE THANK YOU to the very many teachers out there who work tirelessly to make a difference in the lives of our kids.....

One of the many cards I made

Rainbow coloured cards with lots of Chocolate

36 cards in one evening

They actually turned out really well and I can't wait to hand them out. 

All over my dining room table. 

One of the other teacher aides from my school  and I spent the evening last night preparing these to give to all the teachers at our school tomorrow......
We attached them to a little bag of chocolates.  I mean who doesn't need an energy boost when working with kids. 

So to all those teachers out there....

A HUGE THANK YOU... YOUR HARD WORK IS GREATLY APPRECIATED

And finally...
