Wonderful Thank You Notes....

   Here are some thank you notes from my daughter's 5th graders.  It is so nice to be thanked. All of these little notes mean so much to me.  The spelling and writing does not have to be perfect.
  This one says," Thank you Nana for everything, you are the best, you have a wonderful daughter."  (the teacher ) LOL.  A girl wrote this.
  This was from a boy. It touched my heart. It says," Thank you for helping make this year special. I will remember this year forever."  A lot of you that follow my blog did mention how a simple picnic at the teacher's ,  would make a good memory for this class.   I hope the kids thanked the teacher's aides and cadet teacher also. :)
   I also received this sweet card from Linda of Linda's Life Journal.  It came in the mail yesterday afternoon and  made me smile. There's a little finger prints book mark from the quads, Linda's wonderful grandchildren. You know the ones she takes pictures of and tells stories of , to entertain all of us.  Thank you Linda, and children...I appreciate this kindness so much.
  This is last night's sunset. Capping off  the end of a pretty day, that made me feel loved. :):)  Hope everyone's planning a fun filled weekend.  Hugs to all. XO

    1. Nancy, One little boy, the one that never smiled and always groused(heart breaking in itself) Wrote a note and drew a dinosaur on it. He had an aide with him all year long. I would love to see this children thru the years. I pray for him. Yes, I love the neatly written card form the boy that said he would remember forever. They can squeeze our hearts. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

    1. Linda, Kids just have a way of making us cry...good cries and bad ones too. LOL Ted mom used to say , "when kids are little they step on your toes and when they are grown, they can step on your heart at times. " That used to make me sad for her. Just like all moms she wanted the ebst for her children . One has finally settled down to be a good citizen. :) Blessings, xoxo, Susie

  3. A touching post although I don't don't the story behind it. It's been a very long time since I've sent a note of thanks or encouragement to anyone. I need to do something about that.

    1. Thank you Nonnie. Some kids will forever be in my thoughts ...some of the children I have helped my daughter with at her picnics are now grown. I remember a girl who's hair was so curly I could never get a comb thru it. I saw her this past summer with her father grocery shopping....her mother had left her with the father and never came back. I still want to hug that child when I see her. She's going into H.S. next year. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

  11. What sweet notes from the children. I think thank you note writing has gone out of style and it's nice to see these children still do it. I got a bookmark from Linda and the quads too. That was so nice of her to send it to us.

    1. Kathy, every class that my daughter has taught have written thank you notes to me after the picnics. There's no way I can remember them all...but I sure do remember the ones that break my heart. I think most kids need hugs and words of encouragement. I think my daughter is a great teacher. Blessings to you for a great weekend, xoxo, Susie

  14. What special thank you notes.

    I haven't gotten any written thank you notes from students lately, but I have gotten a lot of comments on Facebook. One of my favorite classes of students is graduating from college this spring. I have know them since they were 11 years old and I am so touched that they think to mention me when they share their successes.

  17. That was sweet of the children to write "thank you" notes. I bet they touched your heart, Susie. I wish I lived closer to Jess so I could work in her classroom. Wouldn't that be something?

    This sunset is beautiful, and should be in a magazine. :)

    love, ~Sheri
