Saying thanks

Term 4 is around the corner and before we know it, it will be the end of school for another year.  As a teacher myself, I make sure that my childrens teachers are thanked for their efforts, something that we all forget to do.  This year my 2 boys have 2 teachers each as well as teacher aides.  My daughter is in high school, so lots of to thank there!

I thought I would try my hand and doing a simple stitchery design with the iconic apple shape and a simple well known poem to put into a hanging for one of the teachers.
