Appreciation! {Five for Friday}

{one}
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week to all of ya’ll! It’s a miracle I didn’t gain 25 pounds this week from all of the luncheons, baked goods and sweets that were everywhere I turned. How generous the families and teachers at my schools are! This was my favorite treat that I got for Teacher Appreciation Week. It was an oven mitt filled with school supplies and candy!

Happy Mother’s Day! This little sweetheart made me laugh so hard when he was brainstorming facts about his mom for an acrostic poem. After I took a step back and read it, I realized he could be my son! Macaroni and cheese with hot sauce….always late for work! Pretty much sums me up. Kids really do say the darnedest things.

This week I had my first of three days full of CSE Annual Review meetings, which means that my living room has become a full blown IEP writing office over the past month. I am finally starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel!
{four}
Tonight my sister Julia had her senior prom! Didn’t she look stunning!? Although it was a rainy day, it was a perfect sky for picture taking. It was so cute seeing all of the girls in their dresses with their hair done. Makes me feel ooooold!!
{five}
After a long, stressful week, is there anything better to come home to than a delicious home cooked meal? I’m lucky to have such a talented guy who knows just when to make my favorite meal! Tonight we had this amazing seafood pasta. He cooked while I blogged. My kind-of Friday!
Have a great weekend!
