It's almost that time of year again...Teacher Appreciation Week.

I am a 4th grade teacher and while it's nice to receive small tokens of thanks during that week, I appreciate a hand-written note the most.  Nothing means more than genuine words of thanks.

I did stumble across this idea over at Lil Luna though and I am thinking I'll do something very similar for my daughter's teacher.  Too cute!

Thursday Thoughts

Ok...WHAT???  It's been since March 27th since I have posted anything.  It must be spring...kids' birthdays, baseball, softball, school, work, and well, life.  It all gets in the way of my regular posting.  I have a list of things I want to do around the house, but I just don't have the time.  Until then..another Thursday Thoughts.

Ten Thoughts This Thursday    
1.  I wish...I had more time (and well...money) to do projects around the house.

2.  I want...the beautiful warm spring weather to stay...because I'm just flat over cold temps.

3.  I think...buying clothes for the spring is *so* much more fun than shopping for fall/winter clothes.

4.  I laugh...at the videos my daughter makes on my iPhone (like the "how to" brush her teeth)

5.  I appreciate...the "fires" policemen put out on the city streets on a daily basis.

6.  I enjoy...watching my kids play sports--baseball, softball, and gymnastics.

7.  I struggle...with keeping up with this blog (my initial fear before starting it...)

8.  I feel...blessed to have some really great people in my life.

9.  I recommend...putting canned tuna and/or chicken in the fridge so that when you want to use it, it's
     already chilled.  I can't stand tuna/chicken salad at room temperature.

10.  I hope...the money we pour into baseball one day will pay off for our son.
