Happy Thanksgiving!

Before I forget... Thanks to all that helped to support CMH and RMH! Wait until you see the photos.  It was overwhelming. 
We need to remember daily how blessed we all are.  Times are tough and sometimes health gets shaky, but we have so much to be thankful for.  Perhaps you can say a daily prayer of thanks at dinner. Our snack prayer is:

"We fold our hands and softly say, thank you for our food today."  The children know and understand this prayer. 

I do hope that you are reading to your child or even singing or telling stories.  Children do so much better in school when they have these listening activities at home as well.  If your child does not yet have a library card, try to get there over Thanksgiving to have them get their very own card.  If a child can write their name, they can have a card.  They can go and "shop around" their own book choices.  It is very exciting to a small child.  I am sure most have read 10 books by now. If you have, please return that USA book pledge by Dec. 17 so we can submit them as a class and Scholastic can donate books to less privileged children.

God Bless you all during this, our first family holiday of the year.
