Text Box: From Mrs. Nelson — My, what a week! The kids are so excited about the upcoming vacation, and with the snow and Christmas nearly here, they are ready to pop. While it’s always a rough week to try and educate, it is also one of the most delightful weeks of our year. Our Student Council sponsored hot chocolate sales this week, and they were very successful in ways we didn’t foresee. They did raise money for the Open Door Mission and Lydia House, and Friday afternoon (today) we will present that to a representative from the organization. Just to add to the excitement, Damon Benning — former Husker running back and star from Tom Osborne's '95 National Championship team— is the rep from the Mission! The success we didn’t expect from this Season of Giving is the camaraderie — fellowship— that we have seen develop. One parent described the scene as a “little Starbucks.” Children sat with their cocoa and had conversations about school, hobbies, the holidays and various other important subjects. They invited others to join them, and some even offered friends a quarter if they forgot so that everyone could come inside. There were some children that brought money to donate beyond the price of the cocoa, and they were so proud to be giving! It says so much about our families when we see a sharing spirit like this. As we celebrate their accomplishment this afternoon, please know that we are celebrating you, too, and all you do to build the wonderful little spirits that you share with us. We think they’re pretty special. —NN
