Many, many thanks for the postcards

I just wanted to thank all the artists who took the time and money to send my students postcards. We have not gone through all of them yet. We have not sent out any yet. We will do them in the new year. My kids were all very excited and thought it was coolest thing. My parents came in for some school activities/functions and mentioned to me that they thought it was a great project. So thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. Due to privacy issues, I cannot name my students' names here, but I can post what they wrote when I asked them to write about what they thought about being sent the postcards:
