Life Skills
Went to the post office today to buy stamps and mail our Christmas cards. Faith helped choose which stamps to use and then put them on the envelopes. She put the cards in the slot at the post office to mail them and then looked through to see where they had fallen. We discussed how mail gets from one place to another. When we came home, we retrieved our mail and opened Christmas cards from friends and family. Faith was fascinated to see that one of the cards from Evanston, Indiana had the same stamps that we had just picked out!
