{back-to-school cookies made}
When the first batch came out of the oven, Carly was eating one all warm and gooey. She said "this is why I always get the teacher I want, because they know they are going to get awesome treats!"
We take Carly's teacher goodies on the first day but she also thinks [and she's probably right] that lots of other people need back-to-school happies. So I make treats for her to give out to every teacher she has had since K3, the librarian, the school secretary, the principal, and frequently other people we run into in the hall. We are eagerly awaiting our stickers from Aunt Kacey {Doodlebugs} so we can package them up all cute.

You must be making A LOT of cookies! It's so nice of you guys to do this for the teachers. We've never given the teachers anything on the first day of school, but I think we should start.

We bring the teachers a gift bag on the 1st day with treats, alcohol gel, fun pens and pencils, notepads, etc. Last year I included Doodlebugs notecards.

This year we gave choc chip cookies to the bus driver on the 1st day - this is the 1st male driver we've had and I figured he wouldn't want scented hand gel and stationery!

You are a true teacher's kid...always remembering the teacher needs a treat after school too! Do you remember the big red (one of Daddy's old popcorn cans) after school treat can Shirley Turner and I fixed for the teacher kids one year? All of you were so happy...getting to dig for that special treat each day. love u, Mama
