We have had the privilege of honoring one of our special students and her Dad this semester as he serves our country in Iraq. On Veteran's Day, we sent him a care package and some handmade thank you cards. We wanted him to know how thankful we are that he is helping to protect us here at home. We were excited to welcome him home before our Christmas Break and created a banner for his sweet daughter to surprise him with! He then surprised us with a visit to our classroom and some very delicious pizza and juice boxes! We had a wonderful time getting to visit with him and were so glad to welcome him home safely! This week he returned to his duties in Iraq, and we plan to continue keeping him in our thoughts throughout his tenure there. He will have to keep one eye on his mailbox over the next few months, as we plan to keep the treats coming his way too! Here is to our very special hero! :)
