This is a heart-warming book that your students will love!  It is the 3rd book in a series, but I am starting with this book so I don't think it is necessary to read all the books to enjoy this delightful story.  Also, while I am reading the book, I record myself and post it to my You Tube channel if you'd like to listen there!

Favorite Ornament/Keepsake

My friend Carole gave me the perfect holiday gift:

It's from Ornament Shop.Com.  I was just checking out the site, and there are personalized items for every event.




Trip to Puerto Rico

My husband and I finally made it to Puerto Rico for Christmas vacation.  It is a vibrant place with plenty to do.  

The top two pictures are from Old San Juan which is full of history and old buildings and streets.  I definitely loved this part of the city the best (there is even a Marshall's!).  The third pictures is an office building decorated for Christmas.  Christmas is a long season in Puerto Rico:  People start decorating after Thanksgiving, and the holiday doesn't end until Three King's Day on January 6th.  In addition to Old San Juan, we went to the El Yunque rain forest and took a trip into the countryside.

Overall, it was an amazing adventure with great weather.  The downside:  I got my first case of Covid which I thought was a bad cold.  Consequently, I needed to stay home an additional three days from school.  I went back Friday so it's back to reality.


Happy New Year!  Thank you for visiting the blog today!
