Throughout the month of February, OHUMC has been talking about community helpers. They have really gone above and beyond to make this a special month for our kiddos. The best part was having some of the amazing and wonderful community helpers come to the school to talk to the children. These have included a dental hygienist, a pediatrician, an interpreter for the deaf, the church facilities manager (he brought a bunch of neat tools), a Lieutenant in the armed forces, and last, but not least, the Austin Fire Department! I know each one of these community helpers had a huge impact on all of our children. I loved hearing from mostly Sienna (and a little from Colton) about all of the neat things they showed them! I also had the opportunity to substitute for Ms. Jennifer the day that the fire dept. came to visit. So, of course, I took my camera!

| They had made paper fire hats that were really cute, but a little big! |

| And here they are! They began by talking about what firefighters do. Then, one of the firemen demonstrated how they put on their fire suit! |
 |
| They emphasized that the children should not be afraid of firefighters. They are there to help! |
 |
| He even showed them how they crawl around to avoid all of the smoke that rises. |
 |
| Hi-five anyone? |
 |
| Colton's eyes were glued to the fireman. |

| Time to take a tour of the fire truck! |
