Great Idea (Not Mine)

This week at school one of our student's moms brought in a copy of Dr. Seuss' Oh, the Places You'll Go! She asked us to write a message to her daughter on the inside cover.  Great idea, right?

I opened it up to find a place to sign it, and found that there were messages already in it.  I kept looking and started to get goosebumps.  I found her kindergarten, first, second - all her teachers from the past seven years had signed this book.  This mother had started in kindergarten and given it to every one of her daughter's teachers at the conclusion of every school year so they could write a note.  I believe her plan is to surprise her daughter with it when she graduates.

WHATAGREATIDEA!

I told my husband about it, and he agreed that was something we needed to do for our kids.  And, coincidentally, my favorite money-saving website listed a sweet deal on them this week through Amazon.  So we bought two.  I'm going to have Charlie's daycare provider sign it for this year!

I know I'm a little ahead of the game, but that's how I like to roll. :)
