Because this is my second baby, I wasn't expecting any baby showers at all. Afterall, we pretty much have everything we need- besides the clothes. Imagine my surprise when my room mom told me that she and a mom from the other 2nd grade class were planning a baby shower for me at school! Even though I told them it really wasn't necessary- they convinced me that they REALLY wanted to do this- so off they went with the planning.
They held the shower in my classroom on Friday. They had the whole room decorated with pink streamers and It's a Girl! signs. There was a whole table full of goodies to eat- and OH MY GOD THE PRESENTS! They totally went overboard. I got so many wonderful gifts! Tons of books, clothes, and even a kid sized arm chair from Pottery Barn Kids! The best part though was how excited the students were. They all ooohed and aaahed over the cute clothes, helped me unwrap the gifts, and couldn't wait to tell me why they had selected the book or gift that they bought. A few of the kids even brought presents for Jack so he wouldn't feel left out when I brought the presents home!
The generosity of the parents and the students just blew me away. I am so grateful.
