OH MY GOD OH MY GOD THE COOLEST THING CAME IN THE MAIL! LOOK LOOK LOOK!
IT IS A THANK-YOU BOOK OF DRAWINGS FROM THE KIDS WHO GOT OUR DONORS CHOOSE DONATIONS!!!!
I am SO TOTALLY excited. The book is AWESOME, and they sent photos too, but I don't want to put them up on the blog for the kids' sake. But trust me, they are all SUPER COOL.
Below the fold is the letter from their teacher... thank you so much, folks for your generosity to our Donors Choose challenge -- y'all completely rock.

Getting the thank you letters from the students came as a great surprise to me. I also got pictures and a very nice letter from the teacher. To anyone who has not donated, getting a package like this makes your day/week/year...
Go donate now.
That is awesome on so many levels.
When I got my "Thank You" package in the mail, I was a bit emotional. It was so great to see these 1st graders learning from the supplies that Donorschoose had sent on my behalf.
