I was met this morning by this little crowd who were here on behalf of all of the families. What a lovely start to the day! They presented me with two absolute treasures….
The first was a book that contained a special message from each child in the class. I will keep this forever. I love all of the special touches and kind words and pictures that the kids included on their pages. So precious!
And then….! I was given this gorgeous handmade (!) box engraved with each child's name! I am speechless! I just love it! I know I'm overusing exclamation marks, but really, how else can I show my excitement and appreciation?!?! If that wasn't enough, there was a gift card inside! (yes, another exclamation mark). I feel so lucky to have spent my year with this wonderful group of kids and parents. It has been a pleasure! Thank you all for these gifts. I feel special and loved…and a little emotional!
A couple of days ago, I was asked if we could create some artwork to honor some RCMP officers who have worked to combat impaired driving. A group of such officers works for the North Vancouver detachment and are being awarded for their work. We wanted to thank them for all they do. Below is a sample of the badges we made for them to say thank you. These badges are going to be displayed at the awards ceremony.
We delivered them to some officers who visited us today.
Then we gathered together to have our photo taken.
We were also able to meet a police dog (if we wanted to)
We are celebrating one last summer birthday today. He brought us some popsicles to mark the occasion….so perfect for a day like today.
All in all, it was a pretty perfect day!
