So I have a parent that's gone above and beyond the past couple days. I was sick and had to close, and was hesitating taking an extra day to recoupe. She knew that it was because of a single mom without back up care, so she offered to take her for the day. Today I'm open again and she took off work to come on a field trip with me (she had already agreed to, but that was before taking 2 days off prior for me being sick) and she was SUCH a help. I couldn't have done it without her.
I'd like to give her something small. I was thinking maybe have the kids make her a card and give her flowers tomorrow. What do you think?
I think she'll love it. Glad to hear you're feeling better.

Also I think a really nice letter of thanks or a thank you card goes a long way!
I'm glad you are feeling better and have supportive parents like that!

Awww, that is really nice of you AND of her! A little kindness goes a long way, doesn't it?
