The first paperclip was invented by Samuel B Fay in 1867. He used it to attach tickets to fabric. Today the paperclip comes in many sizes, shapes, and colors. We use paperclips for all kinds of reasons…organizing paper in a safe pile, attached to a zipper pull, unclog a spray bottle, and even as emergency hooks on a necklace.
I hope you learned something new today. Enjoy your weekend and I miss you all so much.

I bet you didn’t think this was a real day to celebrate. Well, it is! What do you put on your hamburger??
Did you know American’s eat over 50 billion hamburgers a year. The hamburger originated in Hamburger, Germany as a hamburg sausage sandwich in 1758. But others think it started on the Hamburg American Cruise line in the Mid 1800’s as a sandwich they gave to the passengers. Then it came to America at the World’s Fair in St. Louis in 1904.
The hamburger is the World’s most widely consumed food from Texas to Thailand and everywhere in between.
So let’s celebrate by having a hamburger today for dinner.
Today is a day we honor and mourn the military personnel who have died while serving in any United States Armed Forces. This holiday has been observed since 1868 after the Civil War. It became a National holiday in 1971 and is observed on the last Monday in May. This day also marks as an unoffical start of the summer. Stay safe and I miss you all. Mrs. Valerius
Today we celebrate the dinosaurs. Which dino is your favorite? Mine is the long neck dinosaur, or his fancy name is the Brachiosaurus. There were so many dinosaurs long time ago. Enjoy this book that will give you a little bit more information. I miss you all so very much!
