Hold onto your wallets!

No matter what our political views, I think we agree that the troops need our support. We had a happy thing happen yesterday. Our class had participated in an Adopt-a-Platoon program in which we collected four big boxes of treats/supplies to be sent to a platoon who-knew-where. Yesterday we received a lovely thank you and a photo from a group of soldiers stationed in the hinterlands of Afghanistan. They'd hung up all the kids' cards in their "office." It really made our day to know that the things we sent actually reached some real people and are not sitting on a cargo plane someplace. Valentines are in the works!
