Sunday, November 4, 2018Tonight's picture was taken in October of 2007. Mattie was five years old and was in kindergarten. This was the costume Mattie selected. It was our first year going to a costume store! Previous years Mattie only wanted to wear sweatsuit based costumes. So this change up was a big deal. We looked high and low for an Air Force pilot costume, however, the only thing being featured was a Navy costume. We bought it and then I reached out to a former student and friend of mine who is a retired lieutenant colonel in the Air Force. Within days, she sent me Air Force patches which I sewed onto the costume. Mattie was very proud of his costume and wore it with pride in his School's parade.

In fact, on election day, there are several students in the area who reached out to me. They have the day off and are coming to help sort!!! They are new to Mattie Miracle!!! Isn't that amazing?
