Happy Holiday Season

The holiday season is all about magic and warmth that comes from good faith and love.  The children have enjoyed learning about each of the December holidays. All are celebrated in their own distinct ways and different in every household as well, but they all are celebrated with thoughtfulness and giving that comes from the heart.  Your children have hearts the size of mountains and were so excited to give gifts that they knew would make other kids smile.  We talked about the children to whom the gifts would be given and how they are just like them and love presents, but may not be able to get any because their families had fallen on hard times.    We shared special stories of how good it can feel to give, sometimes even better than to receive.  The children were all smiles as they delivered their gifts to the gym on Friday last week.  Thank you for giving your children the gift of graciousness.  Thank you for your generosity!!

Please join us for a wonderful morning of celebration this Thursday.  The children will sing songs of joy that will make your heart leap for the season, at 8:30am in the Janet Root Theater.  Directly following the show, the children will gather for one final assembly in 2012 before sharing an exploring style party.  We DEFINITELY would appreciate your helping hands for the party.  Please plan to stay and play along with us.  There will be a noon dismissal that day.  
Enjoy the winter break.  Be safe and happy.  Have yourselves a Merry Christmas and together we will make it a joyful new year!
Lots of love,
Mrs. Carson
