Today was Margaux's Ellis Island simulation day at school. They have been studying their family heritage for weeks & the early US colonies as well. Such a fun learning experience for their class. All of the kids got to dress like early immigrants, which is always a hit. My opinion, Marg rocked her immigrant attire. She looked adorable... little christian Scarlette Laurent from France.
She was born Jan. 2, 1884.
She was stopped by the doctors fresh off the boat because of a serious nail infection/fungus {aka her nail polish}. That warranted a visit to the hospital for treatment, where they wrapped her fingers up. It was pretty funny, she enjoyed the attention!
After a long afternoon of traveling through all the areas of immigration, her family met with the commissioner & their family was granted entry to the US.
Somewhere along the way she added an eye patch too! I was busy taking pics of the group. Hopefully her life in the US is what she was hoping for!!! haha Looking forward to Maeve's turn with Ellis Island in a few years. Her family better make it into the country or we'll have problems with her personality!! xoxo
