Hi everyone, I've been doing the last day before the holidays for many years now and I have to say today was probably the best one! The kids were really really good! They sang songs in the gym with the school this morning, said goodbye to M Raey and watched the Lion King this afternoon. I will also say that this day is usually quite overwhelming as a teacher due to the plethora of gifts we tend to receive. You guys continue to amaze me with their generosity! I wish I had time to thank you all individually, but you'll have to make-do with a blog post! Many of you used the link I provided to purchase gifts. It's the first time I've done that and it seems it was a hit. All I can say is that Mme Miller and I would like to THANK YOU all very much! We hope you all have a great holiday season and get some rest and relaxation (and get over all the illnesses!). We look forward to seeing you again in the New Year!
