I was shocked my class could keep this a secret! One of the parents--a kindergarten teacher--met with my students while they ate lunch. She painted their hands and had them make their square and write their name. No one mentioned anything about it! :D I could have stopped in to chat with someone! :lol:
To explain the middle: I write a full 1-2 page letter for parents every Friday called "The Weekly Word." The last line is always "Thank you for these kids!." So--look what the mom put on the quilt.... :-D
This was not all they gave me! There was also a gift card to Tractor Supply for $50 and many other gifts from individuals. They spoiled me terribly.
(I know why I forgot--Buddy had just arrived and had his accident a few days after school was out. I never remembered to share this until now.)

That such a special gift!! 8-) One year students in my Service Projects class surprised me with a quilt. They wrote messages on it, and as I started to read them, I couldn't stop crying. To this day I have yet to be able to read them all without breaking out in tears! :cry: They were so happy that they had pulled one over on me. They kept saying, "You always know what we're doing, but this time we got you!!!" :lol: I absolutely cherish that quilt!!!
