Have You Thanked a Teacher Today?

First, I would just like to say that I love, love, love my kids' school!  They have both been going to the same school since pre-school and I can't imagine it any other way.  They are now in 5th and 2nd grade and are absolutely flourishing in every way.

The teachers at our school, along with all of the staff (plus some really special volunteers), have been an absolutely blessing for my kids... especially this past year as my kids have adjusted to my divorce from their father.  That being said, I wanted to do something special for the teachers this year.... as so often happens, time almost got the best of me, but somehow I managed to get it done.

Here are the fruits of my labor... to thank the teachers for the fruits of their labor...

Love, Blessings, and THANK YOU to the teachers!

The cupcake - red velvet with cream cheese frosting... coated in red sugar and embellished with an apple stem and leaves... isn't the cupcake paper just too cute!  Couldn't believe my luck when I happened upon them in the store.... today!

The cup... simple, plastic cocktail cup.  I found the image via free clip-art
and printed it on the circle labels... so cute :)

Put the cupcakes in the cups! (saw this idea on pinterest....
so many fun ideas there, but you know that already)

Bag it!  Wrapped in a treat bag and tied with a ribbon,
now it's a cupcake to go!

Aren't they just so adorable...

 So I've made it clear that I love our school and all the teachers and staff.  I would also like offer my sincerest admiration and gratitude to all teachers out there... Having had some teachers that have been pretty spectacular for my kids in so many ways, I appreciate the sacrifices you all make and what you do for our kids....

HAPPY TEACHER APPRECIATION DAY!
