The lovely staff at my former elementary school gave me this gorgeous bouquet of tulips and daffodils in a beautiful cut-glass vase. The design is of a raven, to represent Ravenwood Elementary and my 15 years spent there. The flowers showed up in my new office cubby one cold February day. I was geniunely surprised and touched. (As of January, I have been working as a literacy support teacher for my school district and learning to appreciate opportunities for growth and new experiences.) I'll always have a special spot in my heart for Ravenwood and the awesome people who work there, giving so much of themselves to students and their families.

That's so lovely, Lisa, that your colleagues did that. Feeling recognized and appreciated is a big part of Teacher's Pay.
Oh wow, I didn't realize you weren't at Ravenwood anymore. Sounds like a fun job. You were a great asset at Ravenwood.
I love all your new posts....your fun in AZ and Utah and grandkids.
