A Great Idea...

This week I've been doing my best to fight off a nasty cold. I even took a sick day on Wednesday, this rarely happens because I don't like missing school. It eased my mind knowing that Miss Gilbert was there to teach and that our daily routines would continue. I've been resting, drinking hot tea, and poking around on Pinterest.com (my social networking guilty pleasure). Today I found the most adorable idea that I want to pass along to all parents. It's a gift for you to give your child at their high school graduation, but at the end of 8th grade could be fun too! Click here for a link to the original post.

Start by getting a copy of "Oh The Places You'll Go" by Dr. Seuss. At the end of each school year, have your child's teacher write a note and sign the book. Then at graduation this is a special gift and a fun way to remember all their hard work throughout the years. Someday I hope to remember this idea and do it for my own kiddos too!

If you are a former parent and would like to backtrack a book like this for your child, just bring it in. I'd be happy to sign the book and write a nice note!
