"H" is for Hero!

Each week the kids have show and tell at school - they bring in an item (anything but a toy) that begins with the letter of the week.

This weeks letter was "H", and Aidan and Ella asked if they could bring their Daddy as a "hero". After clearing it with the preschool and with the Charlotte Fire Department we were all set to go!

Mike and his crew were supposed to go over with the fire truck, but his chief decided at the last minute that he would only allow Mike to leave the station and attend.

It was a little setback, but Ella and Aidan were nonetheless thrilled to have their "Hero" attend as their show and tell for the day. In fact, Mike ended up being show and tell for the entire school as nearly all of the classes were eventually rotated through for an opportunity to meet a REAL firefighter.
