Dear Parents,
Thank you so much for celebrating my birthday. You all made me feel so special when I received a basket of some of my most favorite things! You are so very generous, and I truly love being your children’s teacher.
As I reflect back on what I'm most thankful for, one thing is certain. I know I am truly blessed to be a part of such a loving and caring community. Thank you for sharing your children with me this year. They really are a wonderfully loving and kind group of kids.
