Merry Christmas!
We had a wonderful Christmas Party today! I would like to thank our room mother, Nicole
Saunders, for planning the party; and I would like to thank all of you who helped in any way.
As we begin the Christmas Break, I want to wish all of you a blessed Christmas Season full of
fun, special memories, peaceful days, and time with family! Your children have already made
this a very special Christmas for me. Thank you for sharing them with me!
