MRS WINTON'S VISIT

For those of you on the UK side of the pond who don't know who we are talking about here, Mrs Winton was Tom's 5th grade teacher at Palm Lake Elementary (Primary school - Bi-lingual web site =;-) ). As she was visiting her husband who works for Disney over in Paris, France for the Summer she took the opportunity of making a pit stop over in the U.K. to visit Tom :)

We are all very close to Mrs Winton who was also Amy's teacher a couple of years before and I imagine she couldn't believe her luck when Tom was also put into her class =;-)

First of all we would like to thank her for everything that she has done, not only has she taken the time to come over and visit us but also helped orchestrate the distrubtion of our unfortunate situation to all of his class mates (school is on holiday in the USA), get the gifts and letters over to us.. send us lots of crazy hats from Disney and also brought over a cool custom made bath robe which was custom made with Tom's name on it as a gift from the Walt Disney Company.

We all enjoyed the visit very much it was great to sit down and chat with somebody from our 'other life', Tom was very happy to see her, he really misses Orlando and all his friends..

Also thanks to Katie and Gracie Ambrose for all the time spent putting together a hat signed by all of his class mates.
