Get-Well Wishes

Jenny found out today that her dad has stomach cancer.  She sent me a text message about it and when Will heard me exclaim "Oh, no!" after I read the message he asked what was wrong.  I told him that Jenny just found out that her dad is sick.  He asked lots of questions about what made him sick and we talked about it on the way home from preschool.  During lunch I reminded Will that we needed to send Grandma Margie a thank you note for the jelly and applesauce she made us.  He got excited about drawing her a picture and then he came up with the idea of sending Jenny's dad a picture to help him get better.  I asked what he wanted to draw but he said I could just take a picture to send him.

I said "Oh, you want me to take a picture of you to send him?"

"No, you can take a picture of something else."

"What do you think he would like a picture of?"

"Well, I think a picture of some leaves would make him feel better."

"You mean like the leaves on the trees."

"No, like the pretty leaves that fell off the trees."

So we went outside and Will gathered his favorite leaves.  Then he arranged them in a pile on a piece of paper and signed his name.  I took the picture, which he had to make sure he approved, and we had it printed to send out. 

We hope it will help!!
