The True Meaning of Christmas

One of the ways our school encourages children to write is to allow them to trace the teacher's handwriting. Recently, I have been getting very interesting things sent home from school that have been dictated--then traced--by my children.

This was the inside of a Christmas card R made for me:In case you cannot read it, I quote: "Christmas is Jesus' birthday and for not crying and begging for more toys."

So, I guess I can stop giving that lecture...

Just passing along a link that is guaranteed to bring you some Christmas JOY! We heard this last year on WMBW and have continued to enjoy it this year! So take a few minutes and visit this site: WMBW 88.9FM website. Scroll down to the Christmas Music section and at the bottom you will see the little player for the WMBW Kid's Christmas Reading. Click on that and enjoy pure unadulterated childlike faith in action!
