Barnstead PTO Holiday Make And Take Craft Event
Unpack your ugly holiday sweaters and join the Barnstead PTO as they
host a Holiday Make and Take Craft event at Barnstead Elementary School
on December 12th from 10am-12pm. There will be crafts for children of
all ages to make and take with them as decorations or to give as gifts.
In addition to the crafting, there will also be several other great
things happening at this event. Jennifer Hamel from ImaJenAtion
Photography will be taking professional photos, the PTO will be raffling
off several gift certificates and a gift basket of beautiful, handmade
candles, and light refreshments will be sold. They also have it on
good authority that Santa himself might make an appearance for some
photo opportunities.
The PTO is still looking for more crafters. Sign up to host a table or
even co-host one with your child. Anyone interested should contact
Jessica Webb at [email protected].
They would also like to help the school community that day by supporting
the school’s initiative, End 68 Hours of Hunger, which is a program that
provides food for students in need. Please help them by bringing
one of the following items to place in the drop-off bin: box or bag of
nutritional cereal, plastic container of peanut butter or jelly, can of
tuna or chicken, fruit cups, box of crackers, macaroni and cheese, Ramen
noodles, or nutrition bars (Please make sure all donated items are
within code).

Letter
Avery,
We miss you everyday.
December 10th will be four years without you.
Time stands still in so many ways. Your little clothes are still in your
dresser, your shampoo is still in the bathtub, your jackets still hang
on the coatrack. The desk our friend gave you is still in the
livingroom.
We know you’re not coming home, but we can’t
let go of your things. It’s still sad to see the school bus stop at the
end of the driveway and you’re not there.
I miss you so much.
Love,
Grammy
Letter
My little man,
Another long year without you, but sometimes a
day can feel like a year without your happy smiling face and amazing
sense of humor.
You are so, so badly missed that words can’t
describe the way I feel without you here. The day you left me is a day
that has changed my world forever.
I always think of how much you would have
grown since that day. I know you were turning into a little man, but you
will always by “my little man.”
It’s hard to think about you growing up, when
you hardly had time to be a boy. I love and miss you so much. I think
about all the times we had and the love we had for each other and how
much more love I had left to give to you.
You are my little man who will always be in my
heart and mind forever.
Love,
Your Daddy
