So here's the thing...
I have a 13-year-old son whom I home school due to medical/mental conditions. He has overcome a lot of things in his 13 years but still has many obstacles to face for years to come. He knows that he is not like everyone else and has often been made fun of, bullied and beaten up as well as had other parents tell him that he can't come to their house or play with their children because of his differences. Like any mother, I just want to see him happy. He enjoys being home schooled rather than going to school but he misses some of the things like field trips, assembly and holiday parties. I try my best to fill these voids but I can only do so much. I would like to give him a Valentines Party here at home and I was hoping that some of you that are buying boxes of Valentines for your own children's school parties, could take one and mail it to my son. I would like to raise his self-esteem and show him that he is not alone. Although he is 13, mentally...he is more around 8 so although this would be considered "corny" for an average teenage boy, it is not for my son. If you would be interested in helping me out, Please email me for information.
Thank you for making a young boy happy.
His name and mailing address is:
Dillon Kusserow
18112 45th Ave. So.
Seatac, WA 98188
I have already talked to my girls. I teach CHorus and music appreciation. They are either goingto make a Valentine or if they have extras give them to me signed and we are going to send a big package of Valentines to him.
My mom also teaches at an Elementary school and I will see what they might do.
So you are sure this is the correct address for them to be sent to?
