While 8-year-old Ashley can’t bring her buddies along to the evacuation site, she can’t very well forget to give them safety instructions!

A proud dad from Louisiana sent the above photo to CNN iReport:

Yesterday, I sent my family to AL to avoid Hurricane Isaac. After they left, I went to feed the family fish and I found the enclosed scene (See picture)–where my daughter , Ashley, had given good instruction on how her stuffed animal friends should behave during the Hurricane. ( A future leader in the making! )
