HELLLLOOOOO, IM ON A BEGGING PLEA on behalf of evie my 4 yr old!!

MY 4 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER HAS JUST HAD HER 1ST BIT OF HOME WORK FROM BIG SCHOOL.
THEYVE BEEN LEARNING ABOUT THE GINGERBREAD MAN AND DOING GINGER BREAD HUNTS.

SHES REALLY GETTING INTO IT AND IS VERY EXCITED ABOUT IT ALL, HER HOMEWORK WAS TO COLOUR IN A GINGERBREAD MAN PICTURE AND ASK MUMMY TO POST IT SOMEWHERE IN THE WORLD, CHOSEN BY THE KIDS, MY HOMEWORK IS TO GET SOMEONE TO SEND BACK A POSTCARD, FROM THE GINGERBREAD MAN SO EVIE CAN TAKE IT INTO SCHOOL.
WHEN MY ELDEST DAUGHTER HAD HER GINGER BREAD MAN TASK SHE CHOSE HIM TO TRAVEL TO FRANCE, WHICH WAS EASY AS MY MUM LIVES THERE AND SENT US A POSTCARD.
EVIE BEING ABIT MORE ADVENTUROUS DECIDED HER GINGERBREAD MAN IS GOING TO TRAVEL THE WORLD!!

THIS IS WHY I AM ASKING FOR HELP FROM THE BEST BUNCH OF PEOPLE I KNOW (CREEP CREEP!!)
COULD ANYONE PLEASE SEND US A POSTCARD, PRETENDING TO BE THE GINGERBREAD MAN, STATING WHERE IN THE WORLD HE IS , ADRESSED TO EVIE, SHE WOULD BE EVER SO EXCITED AND I WOULD BE EVER SO GREATFUL AND WOULD BE WILLING TO RETURN THE KIND FAVOUR!( AND YOUR NAME TOO SO WE KNOW WHO HE IS VISITING!)



SO IF YOU LIVE SOMEWHERE IN THE WORLD AND CAN HELP A MUM IN NEED OF HELP I WOULD PROMISE TO LOVE YOU FOREVER AND YOU WOULD PUT A HUUUGE SMILE ON A LITTLE GIRLS FACE!!!

Hi Kim,

This sounds like a lot of fun  bear_laugh .  I'm quite sure the gingerbread man will pass through Belgium, but he'd better be careful he doesn't get eaten here, becasue we just love gingerbread  :crackup: .

Hugs,  :hug:

I know I saw the Gingerbread Man taking a walk through the Adirondacks looking at all the leaves turning colors! He doesn't want to stay too long, he wants to leave before the snow falls!

Too funny,  The gingerbread hunt happens every year at the school where I work.  The kindergarden kids look all over the school for him.  I guess it is something the little ones do all over.  Since he has visited the kids at Catalina, He'll be letting her know about his visit to the desert.

Hello Kim-----I am in Hawaii for a visit, and my mother,  Beverly Matteson Port,  just called me.  She said to tell Evie,  that the Gingerbread Man just visited her in California,  near the Ocean and he loved  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub  bear_wub   to watch the huge waves roll in !!!   She gave him one of her Gingerbears, that she made years ago, to keep him company on his travels !!!

Kim -- the photo of Evie is adorable!  bear_wub

I wonder whether these messages from the gingerbread man will inspire her to travel the world someday...

Personally, we've never heard or seen the gingerbread man here in soggy north Florida...but the cats did have their tails in a twitter about something in the back yard this afternoon   bear_rolleyes

I'd better check it out...maybe if I can corner the scalleywag I can get him to sign a postcard over to the most adorable four year old passing for a bear I've seen on this web site!   bear_grin

Gotta go...got me a gingerbread man to capture. 

Come on cats!  Sic him!
