Packages from the States! (6/?)

The Chilean mail system is a little funny. It isn’t very reliable. Sylvia, Deb’s mom, sent us a package via US Mail/Chile Correo back at the beginning of May. She sent it special delivery and paid big money to get it to us, but… it didn’t come in the 3-5 business days as was promised. Crazy thing is IT ARRIVED!!! And not just one, but two! One was from the London City Schools. Mr. Simmons, my substitute, sent me precious letters and pictures from children in London. And Sylvia’s package arrived. Sylvia’s package carried special cargo too. Hers contained a Flat Stanley from first grader Dylan. We were supposed to do things with Flat Stanley and take pictures, then send him back to Dylan and his class to learn about where Flat Stanley had been. Well, sorry he didn’t arrive before school ended, but we will still give Flat Stanley a good time and send him back to Dylan. Hopefully, Dylan will still remember he sent it to us.
