Her parents took Henry for a spin while he was in Oz, and just yesterday...my daughter's class received a rather sizable box of goodies from them.

The teacher is thrilled with the items and the entire class is having a great time learning about everywhere Henry was.

The paperclip was part of a homemade bracelet she put on him. She claims it was an effort to be creative before she got beading supplies for Christmas, but I think it was really an attempt to get Customs to open the box!
