Christmas Blessings to You (and Some Mushy-Gushy Stuff...)

It seems as if the first half of the school year has FLOWN BY!  As I've gone back and looked at pictures from months previous, it's amazing how much "the littles" have grown physically, academically, and socially/emotionally since the beginning of the school year.  Celebrating today in our jammies really solidified the fact that 1H is like a family, and I am so blessed to be able to be such a huge part of your child's life!

I will be posting pictures of our celebration after the holidays when I get a spare minute (and will also keep you updated on Baby Happel!)  Saying goodbye today was rather hard for me.  I received and gave my fair share of hugs, and my heart was full of joy but it was also bittersweet.  Your children are truly a blessing!

The amount of kindness you have shown me and my family personally, whether through your well wishes toward the birth of Baby Happel or inquiring about our move to Keystone (as well as the various Christmas cards and classroom/teacher gifts), blows me away.  Tyler, Malcolm, Baby H, and I are so blessed to be a part of such a caring community.  We look forward to raising our children in the Benton Community School District!  Thank you for making us feel at home and for being so great! :)

From our family to yours, have a Blessed Christmas and a very Happy New Year!
