End of the year

I can't believe it, but tomorrow is the last day of school for my kids. This year went by so fast. And I know I say that every year, but it seems that they go by faster each year and it takes me by surprise. With the end of the school year taking me by surprise, I didn't really have a lot of time to make teacher gifts. The only things I could come up with either I had done them already or my teacher that I bounce ideas off of (aka my mom) didn't think it was the best idea for an end of the year gift (beginning of the year, I might have to do it though). So I ended up with the standby of gift cards--at least I know that's something they can always use. However, being the person that I am, I couldn't just send the gift card to school in a card or bag or anything normal like that. I had seen this idea a long time ago, so I decided it was time to attempt to make them.

I think they turned out pretty cute. After I took the pics, I also used my label maker to label each teacher's name to the bag cause I thought that was cute, but I didn't think they would appreciate my posting their names all over the internet.

Deaf or death?

The kids and I were talking yesterday while they were eating lunch and the subject of being deaf came up. Lindsay says, "I don't want to be death". I said, "Do you mean you don't want to be deaf?". She says, "Oh, I thought death just had two meanings". I started laughing so hard! Silly kiddo.
