(We were sad to hear of Tanner's illness and wish him well for the holidays.)
Christmas Party Activities: We had fun making crafts, frosting cookies, and painting ornaments for our tree today!
We had a lot of fun frosting sugar cookies today! Funny comments overheard: Maelo frosted his star in yellow and then added red sprinkles and evaluating his creation said, "This looks like cherries! I love cherries!"
Other lively conversations included the following tidbit from Harris, "But Jesus was not really born on Christmas! (I was thinking he would talk about what Lena reminded us of last week, that Jesus was probably born in the Spring around Easter time)...because there was no SNOW!" Harris reasoned. The other children agreed. (Apparently, only children who live in snow can celebrate Christmas!;)
