Coming Soon to a Blog Near You...

A couple weeks ago I received a visitor in the mail:


Meet Flat Stanley. He was a real boy until he was flattened by a bulletin board falling on him at school. He realizes that being flat is pretty helpful; when his Mom gets locked out of the house, he can go under the door and let her in. He also helps at school getting small things that fall behind the furniture. He's been really busy lately so he came to my house for a vacation.

His vacation ends April 16 and then I have to send him back to Utah to my niece who sent him to me. He's asked that he return with pictures and/or postcards for her to show her class the things he did while here visiting me. (I want a month long vacation like Stanley!)

I thought I would share the Flat Stanley's story/adventures here too; however, Shayla gets to read them first. After he returns to Utah and she's had him for a few days, I'll get his adventures posted here.

We've had a great time with Stanley visiting us. We have had fun taking him on mini adventures here in our new city and other neighboring towns. Thanks for sending him to us, Shayla!

We love Flat Stanley! We sent him to Hawaii once....my aunt put him in an entire photo book of photo's, (Though she cheated a couple of times, bought post cards and shrunk Stanley down and pasted him on there, but who's counting! He still got to go to Hawaii!
