You have some really cute ideas here! I especially like the chocolate peanut butter bark and the flower. I teach two high school English classes at a small school and today was our last day. My very favorite part of the last day is the notes from the students. A personal thought directly from a teenager is hands down the BEST gift! I just finished reading them (and wiping the tears!). Thanks for thinking of your teachers! 🙂 We love your kiddos!
Ang Paris says
Thanks for your sweet note! Personal gifts and heartfelt sentiments really are the best!

I will be stealing the glue stick idea. I worked in the class yesterday and the kids were all struggling to find glue sticks that weren't broken or dried out.
Ang Paris says
It's such a cute idea, right?
