Flat Heili visits Michigan

Note to the unitiated: There is a children’s book named Flat Stanley, about a boy who was flattened in an accident, and who is then able to travel all over by mail. 

By connection through the extended family, we met Flat Heili and she came to visit Michigan.  The non-flat Heili is in 3rd grade in New Jersey, and her flat self has been travelling where ever she can as part of a geography lesson.  Before she came to visit us, Flat Heili had been to several places, including Japan; Marietta, GA; and Spokane, WA.  

I think Flat Heili enjoyed her visit.  Cyndi took her to work, where Heili was able to see one of the things the Detroit area is famous for – manufacturing.  Flat Heili took a ride on the seat assembly line at one of the manufacturing plants that Cyndi works with.  She also went to gymnastics class with her new friend Arianna.
