Today the students were THRILLED to get a comment on our blog from Heavenly Holly's dad. He is a marine stationed in Iraq. I cannot tell you how precious my "little ones" faces were as I read his comment. After reading it we went on Google Earth & took a quick trip around the world to Iraq. The children always enjoy taking trips on the internet. I wanted to let Lieutenant F know how excited his Holly & the rest of the children were. Today Heavenly Holly brought her "daddy doll" for Show & Share. It has a picture of her dad & a device with a message that her dad made for her with his own voice. She hugged it & hugged it. It was a big hit with her Multiage Family!! Here is his comment..."Mrs. Jones & class, I would like to Thank you all for welcoming my precious jewel with open arms. You will continue to see that she will brighten your days with just her smile and giggles. I will often check on you all. Continue to fill your hearts and minds to one day do great things in this world. Take care!" -Holly's Dad
