a gift from the heart

As a teacher I get several gifts before the Winter Break.  Things like lotions, gift cards, books, ornaments, etc.  The students really like watching me open their gifts and I try to make them feel as special as possible.  For example if they gave me a scented candle I would have the kids smell it and comment of how nice it smells.  

This year my students did something I've never had happen before.  

They secretly signed it, passed it around, 

and left it on my desk!  

I'm the luckiest teacher ever!
