I said I would tell you about Flat Stanley....but first, I must yell...Whoopee!! We went and got our new washer and dryer today. Of course it isn't in yet, but it's on the back of the truck and will be in tomorrow after church. Poor Papa/Dad is having such a hard time with the arthritis in his thumbs that he can't work very long without having incredible pain. So Monday he is seeing a hand specialist...Hope he can help.
Now, about Flat Stanley... He was a good little boy that liked to travel, but his parents could't really afford it. One day he was flattened when a book case fell on him...So, his parents thought it would be a good idea to just mail him around the country so now he gets to travel. That's the story of him and the kids in first and second grade get copies of him and color him and send him to people around the world or the U.S. We got him from Adam and went around here and took pictures of Stanley at different places like in the fifth wheel with Lumpy. Then we went to Santa Claus, and Lincoln's childhood home and took pictures. Then we sent him and the pictures back to Adam where he shared them with his class. Tayler sent his to an author that I've never heard of. I haven't heard if he came back yet. It is very disappointing if Stanley doesn't come back. So if any of your kids get to do Flat Stanley when they get bigger, it would be fun to do it again.
We are just about out of the deep freeze. It was actually 33 degrees today and it was the first day I was out of the house for three days. Love you all....
