I remember fresh-baked bread in a brown paper bag, letters explaining the difference I'd made to a child's life, cards that after 12 months still couldn't spell my name - yikes!, a jar of delicious homemade basil pesto which leaked olive oil onto the lovely letter accompanying it. <BR/><BR/>To know that someone had taken the time to reflect on my teaching and my relationship with their child, and then tried to express their thanks, that truly did mean so much more than the standard box of chocolates. <BR/><BR/>Plus it was kinder to my hips!BookChookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06230711251425187241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3845676227863194905.post-23063723571406644122008-12-15T21:34:00.000-06:002008-12-15T21:34:00.000-06:00Hi, Karen!Thanks for visiting Christian Children's...Hi, Karen!<BR/>Thanks for visiting Christian Children's Book Review.

Definitely the thought that counts! I would have to say that gift cards are our favorites-to eat out, movies, bookstores, etc.Deanna H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07798844967901009209noreply@blogger.com
