Before Chris left, he had talked about sending our niece and nephew, Olivia and Luke things from Iraq to share with their classes. They love to get mail and are thrilled to show us their school when we visit. When we were there last fall, I went and enjoyed school lunch with them and they beamed at the idea. Anyway, even though Chris isn't in Iraq yet, he wanted me to get the info for their school. He is going to send them an RME (??), which is basically a packed lunch. I had envisioned this to be dehydrated food, but it sounds much appealing. My sister talked with the school and they are quite excited. The kids are going to print out Chris' picture, so the kids have an idea of who he is, and then they are going to share letters back and forth. Olivia is especially excited. She wants to know exactly when the first package will arrive. Hopefully Chris gets on the ball and sends the package soon! He definitely has some excited kiddos!
