Mariana's Speech
Mariana has to give a speech each quarter for her 2nd grade class. This quarter each student had to give a speech on their country of origin. She gave a great speech on Holland, focusing on the fact that Holland is famous for tulips, windmills and wooden shoes. She also passed out mini stroopwafels (hooray for Trader Joe's) for the kids to experience a "taste" of Holland. My favorite part was when she said that Holland is "an extra special place because her family (especially Opa and Oma) live there!"
