It seems that miracles continue to happen....I found myself in a large gym room with 800 joyful elementary school kids, which represented the entire student body of the school, all waiting to meet Chief Wiggles, along with the thousands of stuffed animals they had so generously donated to Operation Give.
...I tried to convey in my presentation to the children, my feelings for what we had accomplished and why we had to do what we did for the Iraqi people. But, they already knew. They knew we had freed a nation of people in bondage, with out the freedoms we enjoy on a daily basis. They knew that it was necessary to allow these people to live a life with free agency, with choices, with opportunities to perhaps even get one small toy for the first time.

The next day the children were all getting their pictures taken, so buttons could be made to put on the specific toy each child had brought. In this way the children of Iraq would be able to see and make some connection with the child that donated the stuffed animal they received. What a great idea and what a great program. What a wonderful man!!
Chief Wiggles, and WELCOME HOME!!
