You grab the kids, stumble into the school carrying various lunches, backpacks and science projects. You rush into the classroom plopping down your child’s things only to see their classmates handing the teacher various thank you gifts and bags. Is it Teacher Appreciation Day already? Now what?
Teacher Appreciation Day always has a way of sneaking up on you. It isn’t because you don’t care, or because you don’t value the immense impact they have on your child’s life. Sometimes life just happens and things get forgotten.
