It is a wonderful feeling to be recognized for what you do. And this May we are given the opportunity to celebrate two very important careers. National Teachers Week is May 7-13, and National Nurses Week is May 6-12. Both teachers and nurses give of themselves selflessly and are known for their caring heart. Is there a special teacher or nurse in your life? Billy Heroman’s Flowers & Gifts has the floral designs and gifts that will let them know just how much you appreciate them.

Did You Know? Although the observance is celebrated over a week’s time, National Nurse’s Day is celebrated on May 6, and the week celebration which follows ends on May 12, the anniversary of Florence Nightingale’s birthday.  

Most of us can think of a teacher that has influenced our lives and made a difference. Teachers inspire us to work harder and believe in ourselves. They invest time and energy into our progress and truly care about our success. Whether you are in school now, or still fondly remember a teacher from years ago, a floral design is a beautiful way to thank them for their heart.

Get Social: Tuesday, May 9 is National Teacher’s Day. Everyone is encouraged to post photos and stories of their favorite teacher to social media, along with the hashtag #ThankATeacher.
Nurses are with us through some of the most dramatic times of our lives. Aside from having an exceptionally demanding job, they also share their emotions and heart. They hold our hands when we are worried about a loved one, and rejoice with us when we welcome a new baby. It takes a special person to be a nurse, and during National Nurses Week, you have an awesome opportunity to tell them how much of a difference they make.

Billy Heroman’s Flowers has a beautiful collection of floral arrangements designed to be perfect for every occasion. To all of our Baton Rouge teachers and nurses we say thank you, and we appreciate all you do.
