My DD is very much into the FFA and her Ag teacher from last year was wonderful. He taught her Roberts Rules backward and forward and her team is going to Nationals. She can debate with the best of them now and she was shy in front of groups before. Isn't it great when a teacher can have this impact on someone?
I made this thank-you card for him and will be sending him a gift certificate to our local farm co-op. I made the card using the MMSC68 sketch. I love these sketches and look forward to them every week!
