After posting about needing flowers, a friend of mine left some on my doorstep. My roommate came home and made it into quite the investigation as to where the flowers came from. I keep telling her that my secret boyfriend gave them to me, but she doesn't believe me.
I decided to make Valentines Day a day of service. It was the best Valentines Day I've had in quite awhile. I did my best to make others happy when I could. I started by making these cute little bread bears for my co-worker's daughters and a few other co-workers as well. I remember that my mom would make a similar bread bear for our teachers on Teacher Appreciation Day so I thought I'd take a stab at it.
The day of Valentines, I made 3 dozen muffins (chocolate, blueberry, and apple) to deliver to some of the apartments of guys in my ward. This was the little tag I made and put on the top.
Last night, I attended the banquet where I was honored as a finalist for the state for the PAEMST. Two of my co-workers and my principal went with me. We had a fancy dinner and a simple awards ceremony. They let me keep this pretty flower that was one of the center pieces. I also bought a new dress for the occasion.
Today, I got the following letter in the mail from my niece thanking me for a present I sent to her a couple of weeks ago.
Other than that, I haven't been up to much. I still have my student teacher, but she only has a week left. We haven't been on nearly as many adventures as we have in the past during our student teacher weeks. Our first real trip away from the school was yesterday morning when we were needed to judge a science fair at a friend's school down the street. We've mostly been preparing things for next school year and coloring pictures for kindergarten.

You are fantastic.
And that backpack was pretty dang awesome. I'm glad you got a thank-you note for it.
