Christmas Greetings from Syria

So Kobe's class had their special Christmas program today. He was pretty excited to do this since he actually had to miss Meridian's Christmas concert on Monday night because he was sick. Well, a few days ago we got a note home asking us to bring treats for the program today. No biggie--until I realize it's a big "Christmas Around the World" type of thing and it needs to be ethnic food from the country your child is performing about. And Kobe's country was Syria. Lovely--the one country in the world that I know nothing about. After searching the web, we opted for pita chips and hummus (in case you were wondering.) At least now I know I like hummus. Overall, it was a very nice program--and I have a the pictures to prove it.

So, if you want to know anything about Syria or are interested in hearing his poem and "chant'" that he had to do, just let us know. Milad Majid!! (or Merry Christmas for all you English speakers!)
