We have been sending care packages to a soldier overseas through the Operation Minnesota Nice program. These care packages are full of little items the kids bought with their own money including toothpaste, candy, books and food items. Yesterday we received this package in the mail. It contained a flag that had been flown on a mission in Afghanistan, a certificate, a patch from a uniform and a letter from Major Goodard - the soldier who had received our package. The kids were very excited to read about Major Goodard's life as a helicopter pilot stationed in Jalalabad. We will be sending him letters and one last package before school ends.
