Dec. 21, 2010

I hope everyone is having a relaxing winter break so far! I know I am! We are finishing up shopping, wrapping, and baking.
I got an email today from a student's mom who forwarded a message from a soldier in Iraq. A while back, we made Christmas cards to be sent in care packages to the troops. Here is her message to the class:

Today I got a WONDERFUL package! I got a package from a class in Norwalk. I don't know how they got my name but it was super special. Each kid wrote me a letter and decorated it! It was GREAT!!! Brought tears to my eyes and smiles to my face!!! I can't wait to color some pictures and send them a letter back!!

How awesome! I know the class had a great time making these cards and when I read through them, I was very proud. They did a great job and it's nice to know that something this small made a difference to someone on the other side of the world!
Happy holidays to all and take care!!
