When I first considered having this Christmas Time Friday Give-A-Way, the sheer thought of ‘giving’ brought me great joy. I just imagined how happy the recipients would feel! How wonderful it would be to deliver this Christmas joy. And it is. It is wonderful.
But it also bitter sweet. As I read these emails I am reminded that so many of our teachers who are working diligently everyday for our children are desperate for the materials that they need to have their children find success. And I wonder, does that guy over at IBM have to bring his own ream of paper into the office? I think not.
It’s just nuts.
So to that end, I was just going to give one large item each week, but now I see: that simply won’t do. This week, I have two winners. But I would like to say that if you did not win, I will hold your email for a chance at next week’s pick. There were several truly needy teachers, that are deserving, so please check next Friday. Also remember to spread the word! As this is my very favorite time of year, and teachers are my very favorite people. Today we have a winner from California and one from Upstate NY.
