Pop Pop Goes to School

Caleb and Joshua go to Brunswick Elementary School and have recently been learning about safety issues (police, fire, 911 etc.). Since their grandfather was visiting we thought it would be a great idea if he would come in and give a “safety” presentation. He is the sheriff of Russell County, Alabama and has over 30 years of law enforcement experience. Pop Pop gave an age appropriate talk on safety, and gave out some pencils, rub on tattoos, and plastic sheriff’s stars. Then we all went to lunch in the lunchroom and enjoyed some pizza, pretzels, and some kind of chopped fruit (I couldn’t make out what it was).

By the way, those seats that are built into the table are made much smaller today than they were when I was in Elementary school. All the students were amazingly well behaved and well mannered.

Thank you Nana and Pop Pop for making today a special day in the life of my children.
