Snack folks for this week are: Caleb, Jennalee, Taven Week of January 4, 2010: Colin, Jesse, Kate, Madison, Serenity School will be dismissed at 11:30 on Friday morning for the Christmas holidays. We will not be having lunch. Pick up will be the same as always and the buses will be running. Santa letters…a couple of weeks ago, we got word that the Rogersville Review would be coming to collect our letters the very same day we got the news about writing the Santa letters. Well, a third grade class came and helped my children write theirs. We had a few children absent. When you get the issue of the RR with the letters, if your child’s is not in there-they were absent. So sorry for the inconvenience, but like I said, we didn’t know about the deadline until right before they were to be turned in! Later this week, I will be sending you a story entitled, “Pa’s Rifle”. It’s one of my most favorite Christmas stories. I hope it will become one of yours. It is my wish and hope that you have a most blessed holiday time with your family and friends. I hope you will include your child in holiday cooking and baking. They sure enjoyed our time of making our cinnamon/applesauce ornaments. Let ‘em measure and stir and of course…..lick the spoon! BTW- you child will be bringing home some very special decorations/ornaments for your home. I’m sure you will like them! Have a very Merry Christmas!
