The sailor has two daughters and he has been away from them several times. He worked in a factory making mines (mines in the water not on land). He also goes out in the water on a wooden ship and uses a mini submarine to find the other people's mines. He gets them and defuses them. It is a very dangerous job but he does it anyway (plus he liked to blow things up).
After he talked about his job we asked him questions to help us with our project. Nora and Delanie asked some interesting questions like what would you want on your cushion if you got one? It really made the sailer think. We got a lot of information from them and after we wrote a reflection about what happened. This is what Jonathan said he will remember “I will remember how sad the sailor was when his daughter didn't remember him.” And I will always remember how those people donated their time so we could do our project.
Love,
Troy and Jonathan
