Today's NLSW extra event was making tie blankets for Project Linus. We made 47 blankets today!!! No one thought we'd get them all finished today, but we did! Those kindergarten girls can really tie. And they only learned how today!
A bunch of church ladies came to help us. We set up a few tables so they could sit or stand next to them so they didn't have to be on the floor. For the most part everyone worked on the floor. Many of my boys got stir-crazy. Mr. E was kind of the bouncer of the day, trying to keep everyone working. It was worse toward the end when most of the blankets were finished.
After school we found out the Immanuel-ites were making us "supper" at church. They fed us pizza, fruit, and bars. It was nice to sit the quiet sunshine and talk with people about stuff besides school. Now I'm wrapping things up here so I can make it to a wake. One of our congregation members passed away last week; he's always been a great supporter of us teachers and the school, so it would be good to show support to his family.
