Today was pretty awesome.
Last month, Jeff had flag flown over the base in honor of Carson's class. Before he left for Afghanistan, they held a reception for him, and they also sent a care package at Christmas. So this was his way of saying, "Thank You."
Well, today, Carson's class got to Skype with Jeff while we presented the flag to them.The children waved mini American flags during the presentation. Before I presented the flag and certificate, Jeff was able to talk to the class and thank them for all they have done. He encouraged them to continue to do well in school. It was just a really cool experience.
this is so sweet!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love this idea!! What a sweet thing for those kids to get to chat with 'their' soldier!!!
ReplyDeleteI think we enjoyed it more than the kids! As first graders, they didn't really understand it. But still it was great!
