Last minute teacher gifts and the last day of school

My girls have so many teachers, doing something special for them all of them is challenging. I’ve found a simple card does the trick best. But for the younger girls, they still want the proud moment of carrying something in to their teacher on the last day of school.

In addition to the girls’ hand written cards, I made jars of our Double Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies. Because I was feeling crafty. And I had a late evening cup of coffee.

I feel like we barely made it across the finish line to the last day of school today. The girls trudged into school wearing flip-flops (which are not suitable for the mulch playground) and my toddler wore her swimsuit. I’m SO glad it is finally here – to have a break in schedule, packing lunches, and the general freedom of not having to accomplish anything. Ahhh yes, I love summertime with my kids. And all the sweet times that come with it.
