Happy Veteran's Day!

We've had an exciting day yesterday in celebration of Veteran's Day!  One of our dad's - Mr. Seth, who's also a veteran, came to our school to show us some cool pieces of his uniform that he used to wear, and to read us a story called "The Soldier's Night Before Christmas!"

The kids had a blast playing with the helmet, flashlight, backpack, and uniforms and the story was very sweet.  It's about "the Santa of soldiers" who brings notes and pictures from children back at home to soldiers who are staying far away at Christmas time. 

The children also wanted to show Mr. Seth how well they knew the Pledge of Alliegance!  It was a very special treat and we were so glad we were able to say "Thank You!"






We hope all our veterans had a very blessed Veteran's Day!
