All I Want For Christmas...

I am officially on Winter Break so I can start wrapping my mind around Christmas shopping, writing Christmas cards, watching the eleventy billion Christmas movies on my DVR, and spending the day in pj's trying to kick this cold. While I'm at it I thought I'd link up with Learning with Mrs. Leeby and Live, Laugh, I LOVE Kindergarten for their All I Want For Christmas Linky.

What would be the perfect gift from. . . 

1. Students

Handwritten or homemade cards. I received one yesterday from a little guy who just two months ago was screaming, crying, and carrying on trying to bust out of the classroom on his first couple days in my room. He hadn't ever been to a school before and didn't speak English. The letter from yesterday telling me he loved me and thanking me for teaching him was perfection.

2. Kiddies

I don't have any at the moment, but if anyone else's kids want to get me something that is fine :) I'd like this:

Dooney Florentine in oyster. I have it in cognac, but I'm thinking for the spring and summer here kiddies. I love the long strap that can turn it in to a cross-body bag. 

3. Husband/boyfriend

No gifts this year

4. Parents/Family

Petco Gift Cards

I received a picture this morning of one of the pups from the litter I'm getting from. Holy fuzzball! I am SO excited!
