Festival of Lights

The schools try so hard to be P.C. - Collin's more than most. So for the "Christmas" party they actually learned about several different cultures' celebrations that take place this time of year. (So instead of Christmas I guess ours would be Advent - it was pretty cool for the kids to learn more about other cultures) It's amazing to me how many of these different events have lights in their ceremonies. We celebrate the "Light of the World" coming to Earth and in some way that is represented in other other cultures as well...All the early years students got up and sang a few songs for us. As soon as Kelsey saw Collin standing up there she ran up and stood right in front of him for the whole thing (by the end she was doing the hand motions too :) They did a great job!
