mostly amused

Last Monday, at family Christian formation class, we discussed Advent and sang Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. On Friday, we went to the kids’ holiday music programs. The third graders sang a song called Amen. The fourth graders did Dry Bones.

What a mixed-up world. I guess I am still in the happy holidays world…Christmas carols in church and winter songs at public school? Is that too much to ask?

At least the kindergartners followed the 30 year tradition of the elves and shoemakers dance. Which was adorable.

In other news, I don’t know if I have news. I am trying to swing a weekend away while Rob does some training. Just when I was convinced to book a flight, the class changed. I can only hope that it all gets fixed this week. And that it doesn’t snow in late January.

This and That
