    I have one family that have not said thankyou for Christmas or birthday gifts I have given them, which I feel was a shame as I had specifically chosen things for each individual child :-S

    On the plus side though, I was presented yesterday with a lovely chocolate 'library' by a company called montezuma's from one of my mindees parents and a lovely card as it was their last day. I have been lucky enough to receive some lovely gifts and beautifully worded cards from my mindees as they have left over the last few weeks - they make great testimonials!

    I got a Baileys egg from one family,eggs for my ds and dd plus flowers for me from another.....it's silly but makes us feel appreciated.

    Most of my LO's are babies but we still managed to make easter cards and shredded wheat nests and they all got an easter egg-4 year old LO who went home with all that plus an easter bonnet,bunny mask and daffodils that we'd made also I'd bought her a new girly bag as she has her bro's torn,dirty Bakugan one every day.....not even a thank you from home
