Why yes! My blog does still exist! Look at ME! Blogging! Arent you impressed!
Today was the last day of the school year. For Emma this means she has successfully completed Kindergarten and will be moving on to First grade in the Fall.
(Well, I am assuming she successfully completed Kindergarten! Report card is in the mail!)
For Jackson this means his year of amazing adventures and activities and serious lessons in behavior have come to an end and he will be moving on to Pre-Kindergarten in the Fall.
(Soooo glad they don't give report cards to 3 and 4 year olds! )
For me this means the end of hanging around Starbucks in the mornings and then wandering the Target aisles aimlessly before school pick ups.
Just kidding.
No, I'm not.
Now I love looking at Pinterest at the mass amounts of cute and creative gifts some mom's make for teacher gifts. BUT- Im more the gift card type. Can you guess where? Yes! Starbucks! Any excuse to go to Starbucks!
But in an effort to personalize the gifts and show off my beautiful children (and my stunning photography....) I had 5*7 cards printed up at our local Walgreens photo center. The cards were $1.99 each and were ready in about an hour.
I know, right? PRICELESS. Well, the gift cards werent priceless but you know what I mean!
I ended up giving card/gift card combos to 6 teachers that were important to Emma and Jackson. If I could afford it, I would give gifts to so so many more but you have to cap it at some point, you know?
I totally think the teachers will pin these up on the fridge all summer long. And then maybe they will drink their Starbucks coffee and reflect on what an awesome and creative gift I've given them.
Ah yes.
