Today, I thought I'd share with you my neice's "Flat Stanley." I was honored that she chose to ship it to us in North Carolina, and I hope she's happy with the "return" results - which were put in the mail today!
Since she doesn't regularly check my blog, I thought I'd also post the "note" that went with it - so you can also see what we were up to with Flat Stanley around for the holidays!

Hello, Class!
As you can see, I am “Flat Stanley.” My adventure began in North Carolina with Uncle S, Aunt R, and Cousin M (see above). Oh! I almost forgot the four-legged dogs, Kobe and Katie! They hung out with me, also..
After just a few short days in North Carolina, it snowed! Aunt R took me outside to play on the slide!
Of course, I didn’t stay in North Carolina very long- I got to travel by plane! It was an exciting flight.
My next state was Kansas, where I got to visit a Castle and ride on a horse with M.
I spent Christmas Day in the car, traveling through Oklahoma. It was a long drive along I-35, but my cousin played with me part of the time.
Ouch! My cousin broke my arm, but my Aunt fixed me with a band-aid. I got to visit a farm – complete with a goose named D.W. I spent some of the Christmas Holiday on the farm.
During the holiday, I got to go to the Fort Worth Zoo! I saw lots of animals, including the monkeys! I also went to the Kimbell Art Museum, but got in trouble for taking my picture there!
I had a short visit with L, but she didn’t want to have her picture taken with me. I also got to dance with a monkey that played the song, “Jingle Bell Rock.”
One night, we caught a sunset where the sun was turning red!
After I got back to North Carolina, I spent New Year’s Day visiting my Aunt’s friend. She put me in the Rabbit Cage!
Overall, I had a great trip – and I am looking forward to my next adventure!
Miss Rebecca says “Good Luck” to everyone with the rest of the school year.
Sincerely,
“Flat Stanley”

There were several pictures that went along with the note - and a few other surprises in the package! Since it has not yet arrived in Texas, I won't give away any more details here.
Love: Being a "cool"/"fun" Aunt to my neices/nephews!
Hope: My neice enjoys the packet and the return of Flat Stanley!
Do: Hit the books.
