Many moons ago, I 'gifted' (I, ahem, may have found it on the floor a few days earlier) a wrist-size keychain to a student in the front row (CL). Unbeknownst to me, she was taking her driving test later that week and began to use the serendipitous gift from her physics teacher on her actual keychain. So, it became a running joke between us that it was the best gift she'd ever received.
Then, today (last day of school), she gifted me with an actually personal gift ('ty', as the youth say!): A crocheted representation of my head:

| Note: I am the last classroom teacher to still mask. Also note the detail work on the glasses! |
CL commented "he has a bit more hair, but you can always dream".
Note the top view does come complete with the trade-mark bald spot:

| That is Worf-as-a-cowboy's foot that is serving as the anchor point over my desk! |
So, kids the moral of the story is never hesitate to be generous with items you find lying on the floor, for it will come back to you ten-fold!
Let the summer begin!
