some things i want to remember

There are several things that have happened this week that I definitely want to remember!

I was sitting in choir on Thursday and get this picture via text.

Yes, that is Eric and he made the news in Bowling Green!! Too funny! Gretchen said she and Paul kept pausing and rewinding the tv to see if it was really him. She saw him hug one of the teachers and tell Levi something. I told her that he will be signing autographs next time she is in town. :)

There have been so many kind people such wonderful things for the kids at HES! Really they are getting kind of spoiled!! ;) Kidding! I mentioned before that a church donated all new backpacks & school supplies for them. Someone else gave each child a Hornet stuffed animal with an H on it. The first day back to school, the staff of GBC blew bubbles for them as they stepped off the buses. And, yesterday, kids from another school delivered cookies with these little cards attached.I've been blown away at the kindness surrounding us!

A Henryville teacher dropped this by our house after school yesterday for Levi. He found it in the hallway at the old school.I was very proud of myself and did not break out in the ugly cry in front of him!! Oh how I wanted to! I told him how much we appreciated it and when I politely shut the door, I ran to the bathroom for a tissue and cried for the 8,294th time. Oy. Such the sap!

The last thing is this little Mickey Mouse.

We were playing downstairs this week and Maggie wandered into the other room. She was quiet for a long time and then she walked out with this Mickey. I had never seen it. Come to find out, she found Levi's backpack which had been untouched since the day of the tornadoes. I didn't even realize that we had never gone through his backpack! He told me he had gotten Mickey out of the Magic Apple that day for Maggie because he knew how much she liked him. What a sweet child! I've gotten so many things lately that I want to just wrap up and store away in a treasure box. So thankful! :-)
