So a few days ago, my Mom, who runs Millwood School<\/a>, had a request for me.\u00a0 Apparently one of the first grade classes at her school is studying penguins.\u00a0 Now, we like penguins around here, me specifically.\u00a0 I think they’re kind of silly, weird and wonderful.\u00a0 My mom knows this about me, so when she talked to the first graders about their penguins she mentioned that I had a very special penguin. One that wore clothes<\/em>.\u00a0 Apparently the students were fascinated by this, and Mom asked if I would take some pictures of the beloved stuffed animal and email them to the class.\u00a0 Of course I was happy to oblige.\u00a0 Here is the email I sent to the class, with the accompanying pictures.<\/p>\n

Dear Mrs. Bs Class,
\nI hear that you are studying penguins!\u00a0 I love penguins and have a small collection of penguin stuffed animals.\u00a0 For my birthday, my husband’s mom gave me a new penguin stuffed animal.\u00a0 He is the kind that has beans in his bottom so that he sits up by himself, and has wires in his flippers so that they can be moved.\u00a0 His name is The Emperor.\u00a0 Can you guess why?\u00a0 He has a collection of sweaters that he wears for all of the major holidays.\u00a0 He l<\/em>oves to be well dressed.\u00a0 Here are a few pictures of The Emperor in his Valentine’s Sweater.\u00a0 I hope you have enjoyed all the recent snow!<\/em><\/p>\n

Sincerely,
\nAmy
