In the News

Look who made the front page of our local newspaper! It doesn't say her name, but that is Abby on Santa's lap. The area schools sent letters to Santa, and hers was picked to be featured with about 30 other letters in the Christmas Eve edition. On Monday they invited the kids to come up to the newspaper office to receive one requested item from their letter. Abby got a new sleeping bag. I never thought they would use her picture, because she had her hands up to her face in that mock-shy thing she does. But she must have been the cutest one--even with only half of her face showing. In yesterday's hard copy that picture appeared as a 5X7 feature, on the front page. It was a neat thing for her--to be front page news on her birthday.
