Today we made cards for a little girl named Safyre Terry.  Maybe you've heard this story...it's been on the news and in social media recently.  (Google her name and you'll see many stories.)

Safyre is a little girl who lives in New York.  In 2013 her whole family died in a fire - she's the only survivor.  She was badly injured, but she survived.  She now lives with her aunt and uncle.  Safyre is now 8 years old.  Her wish for Christmas was to receive Christmas cards.  So, we made our cards and sent them off to her today.  :)
