The Holidays have started...

Today was Cindy and the kids last day of school. I'm really happy for all of them to have a really nice break. Cindy goes back Jan.2nd and the kids all go back Jan.3rd.
Cindy wrote to the corporate office of Quick Trip and ask if they would donate something for her students in her Housing Design class and they did send a certificate for each one to have a free hot chocolate. So...she asked the VP if she could walk with her kids down to Quick Trip since they were all done with their finals....so they all walked down (15 students) to Quick Trip and enjoyed a hot chocolate. These kids really have absolutely nothing and this was a big treat to them.
Tomorrow I'm going down to church with a couple of my friends and we are going to put the batteries in some flashlight candles that they use for Christmas Eve service. The special candles were donated by one of my Guild members in honor of her son that died 4 years ago. He was just 17 and died of cancer.

that is sad when children have so little that a cup of coca is a treat. when we were children we had very little but we had coca, cows milk and sugar and coca.
