Memory Bag

Zachary (4th) had an assignment last week at school. The assignment was to bring a Memory Bag. In this bag there was to be:

Something warm - a small blanket from his baby days

Something from long ago - a stuffed animal from Grandpa Stara when he was 1 year

Something that makes you cry - a picture of Christian & Stephanie Nielson and family


Something that makes you laugh - a picture of Emma making a funny face


Something as precious as gold - an amethyst crystal from his friend Kyler in San Jose

During the day, Zach's Memory Bag dumped onto the floor and as he was picking it up, one of his friends from another class commented on the picture of Christian & Stephanie. He said, "My Mom reads her blog. I've seen that picture before."

Talk about a small world we live in. Zach said that the small conversation made him feel good inside!

That's so neat - it is crazy how many people read her blog and she has touched their lives. I'm so glad he could share that at school.
