I've always known that my little Shaylee's fourth-grade, teacher Mrs. Downs, was an awesome teacher. But she just proved how truly special she is ...

Shaylee and her classmates have been working on writing books, complete with illustrations.

Shaylee came home from school the other day holding up this beautiful new hardback book with a huge smile across her face.

I said, "Oh, did you get your book order?" She answered with a look of disgust on her face, "NO MOM, it's the book I wrote!"

"Wait ... what? You wrote a book?"

She replied, "Yes, Mom, we all wrote books and Mrs. Downs had them published." She began to tell me about the book she wrote as she started to open the pages. She loves the "Warrior Cat" books, so naturally she wrote her own "Warrior Cat" book.

When we finished reading her book all I could think was ... wow ... what an amazing teacher Mrs. Downs is. How do you say thank you to someone who has such an amazing impact on your child?
