Winter
It snowed in Arkansas shortly after Flat Stanley arrived. This is one of my favorite photos from this winter. Can you see the face?
Spring
Now it is 72 degrees with a chance of freezing temperatures later in the week. My two-year-old granddaughter Cora loves planting flowers.

Advanced Placement Classes
While at Midland High School, Flat Stanley worked on AP English with two of our 11th graders. He gave them some good advice about how to write better sentences. You must have been studying sentences in your class!
We love baseball!
Flat Stanley got to play a little baseball while he was in Arkansas. Although we didn't win this game, he liked hanging out in the dugout.
