Christm...I mean, Kwanzaa???
Today my kids made my heart smile (as they often do). I was in the bedroom listening to them as they played nicely together (without arguing...which very rarely happens) so needless to say, I was enjoying what I heard. They were playing "church". Caleb was Pastor J, and Amelia was herself. Caleb says "Ok, kids, come on up, it's time for the children's message." Amelia sits down in front of him and Caleb says " Ok...are you all excited for Christm....wait, I mean, are you all excited for Kwanzaa?" At this point, I was hysterically laughing while trying to listen to where he was going with his children's message. He continues in saying "yes it is Kwanzaa, and when you go downstairs you will learn more...let us pray. Dear Jesus, Thank you for the day, thank you for the food, and thank you for church today. It's Chrismas and Kwanzaa. Amen." We, obviously, celebrate Christ's birthday in our house, but somewhere along the way, he has picked up celebrating Kwanzaa. So to all of you, we wish you a Merry CHRISTmas, and a Happy Kwanzaa!
